There are dems who aren't corrupt. e.g. I don't think Bernie is corrupt and he believes what he says, but his platform is whacko socialism that would probably cause a civil war in the US.

That quote is garbage. I was never a liberal because I don't believe stealing someone's labor is good. Conservatism is the ethically superior ideology. Don't tell me I didn't have a heart when I was 16 because I already understood that.

And I doubt the definition of liberal in the 1800s is the same as it is today.

Good for you, but outliers don't invalidate the rule. It is a fact that young people generally don't have a good defense mechanism against utopian thinking. Even though it's fundamentally incorrect, it still capitalises on powerful human desires, and teens/young adults for the most part have no clue what drives them yet.

I propose that we stop propagating it as a rule. I don't see anything at all utopian about socialism or communism. I never have. I think the meme that "it would work in a utopian society" is bullshit that pushes it as a good idea when it is literally an evil, unethical idea.
