===Liberal values===
In a present context, liberals believe that lawful citizens' possession of firearms is more responsible for violence than violent movies. They believe, in the face of statistics,<ref>Feeney, Nolan. "Women are Now More Likely to Have College Degrees than Men." ''TIME Magazine''. http://time.com/4064665/women-college-degree/</ref> that women still face discrimination in education and thus in the world. They believe that any disagreement with a black person, woman, Asian, or gay, is racism, sexism, or homophobia, (but not the same to a white, or a man) and that homosexuality is as legitimate as race or gender.
In a present context, the liberal stance on current issues is as follows:
*Liberals oppose the right to life for unborn children
*Liberals support homosexual marriage
*Liberals oppose the right to keep children safe from pornography
*Liberals support legalizing all forms of drugs and chemicals
*Liberals support "affirmative action," i.e., the granting of special rights to minority groups and women.
*Liberals oppose the Second Amendment
Conjecturally, people who are liberal on political ideals...
*prefer bawdy jokes and potty humor over wordplay, even in children's movies.
*use profanity.
*listen to hip-hop or punk rock music, and associate each style with a race.
*believe Satanism is a legitimate, harmless religion, but Christianity is not.
*didn't know Alexander Hamilton wasn't a president until they saw ''Hamilton!''.
*oppose private schools.
*enjoy watching the Oscars.
*spend more time watching the Super Bowl on Super Bowl Sunday than remembering veterans on Veterans' Day and Memorial Day combined. (Memorial Day regards only deceased veterans; veterans includes all).
*think James Joyce and Jack Kerouac were great writers.
*consider Communism as a feasible means of economics.
*believe that World War Two was the cause of the end of the Great Depression, not FDR's economic policies.
*will not accept a tax cut if it requires Donald Trump to take a tax cut as well.
*believe anything a scientist says is true
*accept the existence of hurricanes and other natural disasters as evidence of climate change
*thinks wind power is perfectly safe for the environment, despite reports of birds being killed by the blades, and that solar power is the same, though birds get fried by the concentrated rays. Coal power they reject on the grounds that it produces carbon dioxide.
*accept without questioning that 1+2+3+4+5... is -1/12, because mathematicians say so.
*base their perception of Christianity on its appearance in movies, television, and video games.
*read and see importance in entertainment news and keep track of famous actors and actresses.
*think that the ''Huffington Post'' is a newspaper.
