In reply to the discussion: Is DU a Liberal Message Board? [View all]Notafraidtoo
(402 posts)I think Democrats on this board are older but also not old enough to be liberal in the true sense, a lot of Gen X and Boomers who are more conservative then millennials on social and economic issues, but they are also more conservative then the greatest generation on economic issues.
There is far too much sexism, gun worship, Milton Friedman agreement, homophobia, support of privatization of schools, anti science talk, anti intellectualism etc. for this to be a true Liberal site but with that said its liberal enough not to turn my stomach and there is a lot of smart Liberals here.
I am sure you will call me a purist but i am just calling it like i see it, i love it here but it would be nice if we lost a few center righties and conservatives who stalk the feminist, Gays and pro gun regulation supporters on this board.
