Whenever I hear my dad listening to some right wing shit on his phone I tell him watching all that liberal media is rotting his brain, and he always gets upset about it, arguing it's not liberal lmao

I had someone tell me conservatism can't be liberal because liberals are woke. No matter how hard I tried to explain what a liberal is, they cannot wrap their heads around it
