It shouldn't make sense to say that liberals want to impose their values on everyone else. If it does, liberals are liberaling wrong.

If I were to genuinely try to impose my views on others, conservativism & religion & large sections of social justice activism wld be banned
-
That would be illiberal. Ppl calling themselves liberal but not applying this principle to their own values seem very confused to me.
-
I remember a conversation we had once. We can push our liberal values in some way. It's a bit of a paradox. Think speech, abortion etc.
-
Pushing anyone to say or not say anything, to have or not have abortions is not liberal. No-one is pushed by other ppl having same choice.
-
True. But we base laws on them. Example: man is conservative, woman liberal. Woman wishes not to keep baby. Man does. Law agrees with her
-
But because the embryo is in her not coz she's liberal. The same would apply if she were conservative & wanted to keep baby but man didn't.

In other words, we have to establish trust before we can have an effective argument. Do I have that right?
-
Arguing our case remains very important but here I just meant allowing ppl to live lives as they want with no strings attached.
-
Got it. Live and let live, so to speak.
