Politics, Ideologies, and Epistemologies

I was trying to explain to my girlfriend the difference between postmodern liberals and classical liberals like me. She’s right-leaning, but not at all onboard with some far-right ideas about, say, homosexuality. So, I broke it down according to guiding philosophies and attitudes toward America. I later realized it would be a good illustration of how someone could be liberal and agree there’s a need for reform without going in for ideas about, say, the importance of identifying white privilege or insisting human sex is a spectrum.
