WHAT is LIBERALISM

 June 1, 2021

Just before Midnight on MAY 31 , because i had written that LIBERALISM is an ATTITUDE ;

 I decided to  ask GOOGLE  what is  LIBERALISM ?

This is what i got 

1)  Willingness to respect , or accept behavior or opinions different from one's own . 

   Openness to new ideas .

2)  A Political and Social Philosophy  that promotes Individual rights , Civil Liberties , democracy and free Enterprise.

>>>>>  So by reading these 2 definitions , i wonder why so many have been vilifying LIBERALISM  for years  ie  since  19?? and definitely since REAGAN and FOX News Cable 

Then  i SAW  WIKIPEDIA   on LIBERALISM  

POLITICAL   PHILOSOPHY :  
Liberalism is a Political and Moral Philosophy based on  LIBERTY , CONSENT of the GOVERNED and EQUALITY  before the LAW .

>>>>>>>>>>>>>  So , i stand here and wonder WHAT on earth is bad about LIBERALISM as has been thus defined ?

NOTHING ,  I would  say !  Would it not be what THE CONSTITUTION would APPROVE  ? ?

I will let you be the judge . So let us see your comments                                                                                                                                

It is now  12:40 am  or 00:14  am  JUNE 1 , 2021

President BIDEN 's SPEECH on MEMORIAL Day

 May 31, 2021

President Biden said in his wonderful  speech  :

"  EMPATHY  is  the FUEL of  DEMOCRACY "

in my April 3, Post titled  ON  DEMOCRACY  , right at the very end  i wrote :

LIBERALISM is an ATTITUDE  that can LEAD to DEMOCRACY !

When i heard the President that EMPATHY is the FUEL of DEMOCRACY , i remembered my line .about LIBERALISM being an ATTITUDE that can LEAD to DEMOCRACY . 

Is it not so , that LIBERALS  have EMPATHY ?................which is the FUEL of  DEMOCRACY  as POTUS  Biden said .

>>>>>>>>..  at the bottom of APRIL 3., 2021  Post i also said that i would have to expand  on  my comment that LIBERALISM is an ATTITUDE

I think the words President Biden spoke  ie   " EMPATHY is the FUEL of DEMOCRACY "

kind of explains  my point about Liberalism  as an  Attitude of  EMPATHY !

After tonight   my next Post will be about   LIBERALISM !

it is now 00:03  JUNE 1 , 2021
