Claiming the language is part of their strategy to claim the culture and we permit it when we allow it. They are illiberals and it's past time we reclaimed the true meaning of the words.

Here you call a nebulous "they" first scum, then "illiberals".  Neither of these things are productive.  We don't know exactly who you are talking about, so how can we really engage with the statement.  You called them "scum" which is intentionally offensive and dehumanizing, but then you spout the word "illiberal" in a tone that has just as much venom as "scum".

So who is they?  Even PragerU put out a video describing how Liberals are actually good people that a conservative can have productive disagreements with. What "scum" is absconding with the word?
