liberals absolutely supported making the irish potato famine worse, not in spite of their liberalism, but precisely because of it.
That is a bit of a twist on the reality. Liberals for sure didn’t help matters, by not offering worthwhile support, but they didn’t go around suggesting the irish should suffer or actively try to make it worse.
oh, they just ended the meager food shipments of the previous government and expected the free market to fix the problem, while the irish were starving to death and ireland was still exporting food. but they didnt MEAN to make it worse. okay.
does cause and effect not apply to liberals? is intent fucking magic?
It wasn’t as casual as you make out. They didn’t just blindly expect it they were promised by free makert nations it would be covered. Once out, going back was considered in appropriate. At least that’s how I remember it being explained to me at school.
You had to dig hard to find this problem though. Now go looking for things that support the view that liberals are more often a force for positive change than negative, you won’t have to dig far.

this is like an incoherent tale told to small children
and no, i didnt have to dig hard. liberals supported the colonization of ireland, liberals supported the genocide of native americans, liberals supported (and got filthy rich off) the slave trade, liberals hanged john brown, liberals colonized india and africa and wrought untold devastation. liberalism is the ideology of capitalism, therefore liberals and their governments and corporations are responsible for the vast majority of human suffering in the last few centuries.
