      The fuck are you on about? On the traditional left-right axis liberals are placed in the center, though that is a simplification. The ideals align with plenty of leftists but the economy is waaay right.

      Liberal never meant leftist, as a simple fact liberalism refers to the center right ideology that asposes capitalist “democracy”. Furthermore liberals will occasionally pretend to be progressive on social issues but without economic liberation social liberation is fundementally not possible.
