Re: Australian Election

[chardmonster]

Because American definitions don't make any sense.

This is the reason that I get yelled at for saying "I act conservatively." Apparently that means I go around personally kicking unwed mothers as opposed to not being flashy.

Liberal in the American sense is probably one of the more sensible American terms, honestly. It's relatively correct.

The problem is that liberal has meant a hell of a lot of things in history and it's quite hard to say what it should mean. It's even meant a lot of things to the people who have used the term (look at Herbert Spencer yelling at other liberals because he wanted the term to mean something very close to "libertarian" and a lot of other liberals wanted to do things like regulate industry). So how do you tell whether someone is using it "correctly"? Which sense of it is the correct one? The liberal nationalists? The 'classical liberal' libertarians? The mainstream liberals? It's almost impossible to say what's the correct usage. It's a contentious term.

I do think that the American usage of it is not entirely wrong, certainly it's not an inaccurate description of the contemporary Democratic party. That's not to say that American political terminology is logical; it's deeply illogical and makes no sense, and I certainly sympathize with your point about "conservative" and all that. But this example is fairly sensible.
