→Denmark/Sweden/France/California are not Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union. Stop pretending that liberalism equals fascism or communism
:::You're missing my point. Liberalism and fascism/communism are the same in many ways (atheism, labor, one-world government, anti-family, government control in the lives of people for communism; big government, animal "rights," environmentalism, gun control, socialism with the Nazis). These are liberals, but more extreme versions of them. They are liberals nonetheless. Also, let's not make library book the final authority, as liberals obviously don't want to call nazism and communism liberalism. Let's look at their policies and ''not'' what the mainstream thinks of them. Their policies were left-wing. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 23:42, 8 May 2017 (EDT)

::::The secular left is made up of atheists/agnostics. The Soviet Union and communism is militant atheism. Not militant agnosticism.
::::Communism and fascism are not well known for animal rights.
::::The environmental record for communism is very poor compared to liberalism. If you haven't done any research on this matter, please do so.
::::European social democracies which are liberal are different from communist countries. People can do open air preaching in many liberal countries in Europe. You cannot do that in communist countries.
::::There is a political spectrum.
::::You can certainly have a section in the article on the more extreme liberals and clearly mark it as such, but be sure to cite legitimate examples and clearly explain it.
::::And let's do use the entire world's libraries for decades and decades and decades and use the world's printed encyclopedias and not pretend they don't exist for the sake of ideological fantasizing. Liberalism is not Nazism or communism.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 00:30, 9 May 2017 (EDT)
== Democrat does not equal liberal. Historically, many Democrats have not been liberals. Not all American slave owners were liberal. George Washington owned slaves. ==
