>>374173You can always tell when you're talking to a Burgerlander because words (especially the political kind) mean essentially the opposite of their original meaning to them due to spending their lives immersed in the society that literally invented the study of propaganda.
'Left'? In Burgerland this is a synonym for Keynesian social democrats in love with identity politics.
'Liberal'? In Burgerland that means left, despite it being understood literally everywhere else in the world to mean the right-wing ideology that thinks capitalism is the best thing ever.
'Libertarian'? In Burgerland that means the most extreme advocate for corporate rule, despite it originally being coined to describe anarchists in France when the government banned explicit anarchists. Actual anarchists oppose capitalism by definition.
'Democracy'? In Burgerland that actually means the system of oligarchy pioneered by ancient Rome… which was actually diametrically opposed to contemporary democracies like Athens and Syracuse.
Just take a political word and imagine the opposite and you'll ironically have a more accurate understanding of politics in Burgerland.
