    Conservative and liberal are not races. However, particularly on this forum they seem to have become slurs.

    Conservatism and Liberalism aren’t races. They’re not inborn. They are ideologies, and ciriticizng them is fair game. (Just be fair about it.)

    I think the word you mean is form of “bigotry”. I see a lot of that.

  12. suthrnlyts2004 - March 26th, 2009

    No, not at all. I think that frequently people attempt to make race issues out of them at times, but both parties are racially blind.

    No…because many people call themselves liberal and conservative…they are self proclaimed names…I would say it is generalizing when a republican is called a conservative if they do no consider themselves one and calling a democrat a liberal if they do not consider themselves one…. but I would not call it racism.
