    Im not using their self described words, no matter how correctly you define it. Words matter, I just dont know why anyone would give them such power in speech.

    Theyre parasites.

      Theyre parasites.

      Of course they are - liberalism is, and have always been, a fundamentally oligarchic ideology.

      The term parasite describes the role liberal elites play in society - but it does not describe their ideology. An ideology that has been hidden away by the pretense that liberalism isn’t an ideology at all - which is partly how they managed to pass this fundamentally oligarchic ideology off as “democratic” for so damn long.
