Never ever will I support anything from the Young Liberals, even if it's something as crucial as that. These guys are among those parties whose sole mission is to promote anti social measures and thus leading to all that very dystopian world we currently live in.
Sure stay in your extremist childish thinking.
I'm f amazed at the news getting out of the French Parlement, where a party refuses to vote a proposition aligning with their view just because it's a very opposite party.
Wtf are they f children there?
It's the exact same thing I see in your comment.
Honestly, this is nothing specific to the French parliament.
It's very common for political parties to oppose some law that is fundamentally ok with their line of view just because another party they don't like is supporting it.
In the US, it seems like it's happening also very frequently.
It sucks but this is nothing new in politics.
You know whats extremist? Supporting conservative and neo liberal politics that lead us to all that problems, hoping that the very same politics will make a change in the right direction. It's not about opposing an idea but opposing the center-right parties altogether. Once you comply it will open a huge gate of possibilities that will only be used in their favor.
You know, this is the mindset that allowed Putin to build his regime so easily. While the opposition (in the broadest sense of this word) was fighting against each other, few were fighting against Putin himself. Fighting together against one particular measure != supporting conservative and neo liberal politics.
I'm just glad you gave examples and citations so that your intended point actually carries any weight whatsoever and definitely doesn't fall flat
Well, just look up their party FDP (Germany). They base their entire politics towards rich people and try to cut everything else. Just plain capitalists driven by corrputed politicians. They may be liberal to some extends but thats mostly liberal towards the free market aspect.
