Like many words liberty has been misused for so long its real meaning is lost.

Liberty 1.freedom from arbitrary or despotic government or control.

Everything else is irrelevant.

I forgot to put in my point. “Liberals” today actually destroy liberty. When a right has to be imposed on the beneficiary the right is most likely not beneficial.

Didn’t say liberty (I can understand your reference), I said “liberal” … open-minded or tolerant, esp. free of or not bound by traditional or conventional ideas, values, etc. In other words, anything goes. ;-)
