“Liberal”? That’s nothing. They cop to it...same as “progressives”.
However, they don’t like being outed as socialists or communists.
.....I would hope that “the right”, as time marches on, is successful in elevating the word “Liberal” to the same evil status “the left” managed over the past 65 years to elevate the N word.
See, I can’t even say the word, unless I was black. Then I could.
