I keep hearing stuff about conservatives and liberals around here. Should probably do some research on what that means to be one of those.

Edit: HuggingChat told me that conservatives want things to stay as they are, cuz it's stable. And liberals want to change stuff, cuz they want to make it better then "just stable". Makes more sense now.

Important to note that many people don't believe that the way things are is "stable". It isn't just "change it to be better than just stable," it's "get most people to be stable instead of just the rich people who are stable already "

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I just wanted to make both sides seem equally logical and reasonable with my "explanation".

There's just a lot of militant name-calling and shaming for topics that are made to be political because everyone is so polarized. It's exhausting. Just forget labels and know what's right and wrong by your own standards. Be happy you don't know much about it.
