Re: Liberal vs. conserative vs. moderate desis

@Theorist

for the issues you have mentioned, yes. There can’t be a middle ground for such issues because the choice isn’t available the way you have put it..

Moderates will tell you: well, i am pro choice but I do not condone abortion just for the heck of it, the girl should be a victim of sexual abuse, rape or whatnot for an abortion to be ok for me.

A liberal will be pro choice and may also not condone abortion for the heck of it. Not condoning it while still making it legal is a liberal position (not a moderate position)

They would tell you tax the rich more and tax the poor less. This is a liberal position!

Healthcare should be available to all but the richa$$ dudes need to pay for most of it. This again is a liberal position!

They see the grey area that most liberals and conservatives miss. No grey area above.

What’s the difference between moderates and liberals/conservative: they can be easily convinced and are likely to be right. I am a hardcore liberal and I wish I could see things sometime that are crystal clear to moderates. It takes me a while to see it from their point of view.

Liberals typically seek the truth, and are actually very flexible when you provide them a convincing argument. They are very inflexible when it comes to things that are obvious - such as womens rights, equality for all, resolving issues peacefully as opposed to by war etc.

Keep up the good work!
