Whence “Liberals”?

I abhor Donald Trump. I canvassed for Bernie Sanders. I considered myself to be “liberal” until what seems to be the majority of liberals who I know turned pro-censorship, war-friendly, trusting of the FBI & CIA, abandoning the working class in most things except rhetoric, willing to applaud authoritarian measures during COVID & clueless that they were being played by the corporate media on numerous major issues including Russiagate. The majority of these people wouldn’t recognize themselves if they time-traveled to meet themselves from ten years ago. For several years I have considered myself to be politically homeless.

    Sanders now is one of the major sponsors and supporters of the government criminalizing free speech.

    Same case with the “liberal” ‘Biden admin unconstitutional persecution of Donald Trump (whatever you may think of him).

    It is a path to totalitarian dictatorship.
