    That’s not really a universal truth, Leftists hold a wide range of views on liberalism.

      Not on here it doesn’t seem. On here a liberal to them is chuck Schumer or other neoliberals(neo being the keyword here). They think liberalism is about protecting capital. I would argue that socialism can be very liberal if we’re going with the traditional meaning of the word.

      But what really bothers me about it is it feels like a wedge issue created to drive the two groups apart, and it seems to work on people that I KNOW are smarter than that. But I guess we liberals thought that about Maga as well
