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.

This is what I meant they mean by 'pushed on' - having to know other people are doing things you don't like. I reject this definition.

But our lives do influence each other. We interact. So often it's not just knowing.

I haven't denied that we influence each other. Where do you think we disagree?

Only on the part where we don't "push" our values/ideas on others. Liberty for all is a value that not all share. Or to a certain degree

But I did specify that in my second tweet of the series. I said they mean by this that they are prevented from imposing on others.

Ok. Maybe I misunderstood this. I read this as us not imposing. Them imposing. Hence my paradox claim.

Having defined the differences in understanding of this word between liberals and conservatives who claim to be imposed upon.
