Liberalism isn&#x27;t very liberal anymore.<p>Obviously I&#x27;m equivocating, since that would make no sense any other way. The smooth progression over the past 70-80 years where &quot;liberalism&quot; has turned a 180 that at times it seems like nobody has noticed is... I dunno... fascinating, if nothing else. Tolerance, diversity, free speech, many other words, all have rotated 180 degrees in that time frame.
