    There are not many liberals in Portugal.

    One person I know said the crisis would pass and that the markets would solve the problem.

    A lot of the liberals I knew in high school graduated to libertarianism after 2008

    communism? We're for the enslavement of the Aryan

    taught in schools, mad blunts will be smoked.

    "Communism is a single-party state system with state control over production and distribution."

    "In communism, wages go to the government and are then divided equally to everyone."

    You might not believe, but here in Holland Liberals are the large majority and still they say markets will solve the problem.

    STFU! Markets fucking created the problem!

    The CPUSA is revolutionary.
    We claim to live and die equal, the way we were born: we want this real equality or death; that’s what we need.
    And we’ll have this real equality, at whatever price. Unhappy will be those who stand between it and us! Unhappy will be those who resist a wish so firmly expressed.
    The French Revolution was nothing but a precursor of another revolution, one that will be bigger, more solemn, and which will be the last.

    I beleive you, but your people must be sick in the head to think something like that. Maybe it is the cold.

    "Get rid of capitalism? So what do we do, go back to bartering?" (someone I personally know who is a high school history teacher).

    "Vote Ron Paul!" (numerous people who are, by their beliefs, economic social democrats, not libertarians, but support him because of his drug and war stances, then defend his insanity or write it off)

    "Occupy is supposed to be all inclusive!" (in response to my criticisms that the local occupy was letting libertarians/Ron Paulites be a part of it)

    "Doesn't Marxism say that marriage is legal prostitution? I think that's sexist--calling all married women prostitutes."

    Yes. Really.

    "I'm a socialist." (even though they are not, they're a social democrat) or; "Socialism is..." (goes on to explain liberal social democracy).

    Oh god, ALL THE TIME! I have a whole bunch of "socialists" at my school, who are all really Obama and Democrat supporters.

    The "we're all socialists" type of idiots who say that the police department is a socialist institution because it's state run
    We claim to live and die equal, the way we were born: we want this real equality or death; that’s what we need.
    And we’ll have this real equality, at whatever price. Unhappy will be those who stand between it and us! Unhappy will be those who resist a wish so firmly expressed.

    In a YouTube debate currently going on, I mentioned factory workers in third world countries and that they're working as slaves for corporations in America. He replied,
    Thanks to that they actuallu got a job and can afford some food. We need inequality. The energy is in the waterfall, not a pond.
    People like him are just as disgusting as Nazis.

    wow. Those american liberals are idiots! That is the kind of stupidity the USA are known here for.

    In my country I have heard:
    "The PS and left-wing policy was responsible for the crisis"
    "We need to pay back the debt"
    "It was better when Salazar was around"

    But these are not from liberals, they are from fascists. Strangely it is more common to find a fascist than a liberal here, but you still have a very hard time finding a fascist, it is much easier to find a communist.

    It is becoming more and more obvious that Portugal is not all that different from Holland.
    It's probably because Fascists like to scream more. On- and off-line.
