    Politics is literally entirely composed of ideas. The parties are named the way they are because that’s what they’ve been named for like a billion years.

    None of those terms are used how you’re claiming they are.

    Sure YOU use the terms…

    So, they ARE used how I’m claiming.

      The onus is on you, you claimed the terms are used and I already asked and you decided to not oblige and tell me to Google it.

      So you Google it, or provide the proof you claimed of first.

      The terms the US wants and uses is democrats and republicans, since they don’t really follow ideologies at all.

      In a healthy political system the right will have some left ideas and left will have some right. Maybe educate yourself on other politcal systems first if you want to discuss and call me out? Your democracy is a sham, others don’t operate that way, yet you want to claim they do…? What….?

        I’ve made literally no claims about anyone else’s democracy.

        As a matter of principle I refuse to use Google for you, you’re the one who originally made the claim that we don’t use progressive or conservative as terms, and if you’re going to insist on playing the Burden of Proof game then that’s what you’re going to get. Educate yourself on this topic or leave.

          Nah, since that’s not what the original topic was about anyways, and you seem to be hell bent on being correct instead of having a discussion.

            I’ve forgotten the original topic at this point tbh. If you have any further arguments to make then feel free, otherwise it seems we’re at an impasse.

            hell bent on being correct instead of having a discussion

            Do you find this an issue in many debates?
