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
Course not. They want their own view imposed on everyone. None of those people are liberal.

Exactly. And when a society is mostly liberal, those ppl can claim liberal views are being pushed on them.
-
But that doesn't make any sense unless, as I said, they mean 'my right to impose my values on others is being prevented.'
-
It is. I know this sounds ludicrous to us. But not all believe in liberty for all. Not truly. We make rules as a society. What is & what
-
I know they don't. But they cannot say that liberty is forced on them when their right to deny themselves any rights or freedoms remains.
-
It's not about just themselves. Not all are as focused on the individual as us. Conservatives focus more on the community.
-
Which is why I started by saying when they say values are imposed on them, they're usually talking abt other ppl's rights not their own
-
I know. I just contemplated on the claim if liberals can truly say we don't push our values on any one. That's all.
-
If you define ' values being pushed on' as ' values existing commonly along with your right not to participate' yes.
