You say you are not a liberal, but you are one of the most balanced liberals I met online. A liberal is the one who lets others live their life while they live theirs. It’s another thing that over a period of time the meaning is completely lost and become something else now.
Liberalism as a philosophy is more rooted on individual happiness and sometimes Individual happiness can harm the society..so that's why I don't consider myself a liberal because I don't believe as a philosophy it's good for the society.
Eg..I don't think LGBTQ is good for the society as it breaks the social fabric of the society...does it mean I want them to be harassed and discriminated?. Absolutely no!!
To live and let live is more like to be that of a tolerant person...a person who believes in liberalism can still be Intolerant..like a gay person can still hate me or attacks me for my outward muslim appearance...
Did I make sense?
