Conservative and Liberal Discussion
In today’s society people constantly throw around the words liberal and conservative as both insults and claims to righteousness. They also, incorrectly, engage in automatic connection of one ideology with a political party (Republican = conservative and liberal = Democrat). Discuss two reasons why the common use of liberal and conservative language in today’s discourse is overly simplistic, misleading, and incorrect. Be sure to use specific examples, whether real or hypothetical, to support the argument.
