I WILL LITERALLY MURDER YOU IF YOU HAVE CASUAL SEX WITH MY SON. Very tempted to comment on how creepy and possessive it is, but I guarantee it'll just end with no reply and me being blocked.

#6 suggests that if I marry another man, I can relentlessly bully your son. HACKED

American politics is easier to understand once you realise that "liberal" and "conservative" are just words for "goodie" and "baddie", the application of which depends on your own personal outlook.
Nah, they're just synonyms for Democrat and Republican, utterly divorced from their dictionary definitions.

This is true, but Americans never use the word "liberal" that way.

Which led to the Liberal party in Australia getting loads of abuse from the American right an election or two ago because they couldn't grasp the concept that the Liberal party here is our right leaning party (but also has some of the most staunch monarchists so would hate the name 'republican').

Conservapedia once posted how PM Tony Abbot was ousted by liberals. Made it sound like the equivalent of "President Republicanman removed from office in a coup by Democrats!"

They curiously ignored the part where Abbot himself was a Liberal, and that he was replaced by a different Liberal in an internal selection of new party leader. In fact, the headline had a lowercase-l on liberal, to make it not seem like the party.

Man what about the Liberal-Democrats in England? Did the Conservatives in the US get confused by them?

Or all the drat liberal parties in the rest of Europe for that matter. Or are they just too ignorant of the rest of the world for it to come up?

The African-American community actually does care about that poo poo, like a whole bunch. However, that's not usually a conversation that involves white people, and happens in black communities. What this image is trying to say is "black people aren't allowed to complain about things that involve white people."
