“Any Leftist, any Democrat, will tell you they believe in freedom. Of course they do. Even the Chinese believe in ‘freedom.’ It’s the Donald (‘Hitler’) Trumps who are trying to destroy our ‘freedom’ and ‘democracy.’ Everybody else believes in freedom. And that can be confusing. The conundrum is, a Leftist doesn’t mean by ‘freedom’ what traditional, God-fearing Americans mean by [the word]. If you talk to a Leftist about ‘freedom,’ you will probably both use the same word. … But they don’t mean the same thing by that word. What does a Leftist mean by ‘freedom?’ To Leftists, freedom means government ‘allows’ you to do what you do.” [editor’s note: Despite the rhetoric, this pundit otherwise addresses liberty and privilege quite well – SAT] (09/25/24)
