“Liberals” aren’t even truly liberal. They’re leftist whack jobs that are offensive to people like me who are a more classical liberal. They hijacked the word to describe themselves in a way that makes them sound good. Being liberal means being free, unrestrained, not bound by authoritarianism, based on the principles of liberalism. How on earth is that consistent with ANY leftist ideology?

What it boils down to is that a lot of people have faith in government to do everything and solve every problem. Government for the most part does a pretty poor job at doing most things. Some people trust and believe in government for everything, and some people don’t trust government and believe they should do little to nothing.

Throughout history, Pandemic’s and outbreaks have been managed by doctors. This covid-19 situation is being managed by politicians. The republicans and democrats are both to blame. Government has no right to tell people they can’t choose to freely gather or conduct business. Having freedom comes with assessing and taking your own risks. If you are worried about getting sick, stay home.
