      In North America, they call leftists liberals & don’t split hairs like Europe & Latin America.

      In Europe and Latin America, liberalism means a moderate form of classical liberalism and includes both conservative liberalism (centre-right liberalism) and social liberalism (centre-left liberalism). In North America, liberalism almost exclusively refers to social liberalism.

      People in the US get seriously confused that the Liberal party in other countries (eg, Australia) isn’t liberal.

      LMFAO how is that your take away?

      “The worst thing for a (liberal/socialist/leftist/progressive) is another (aforementioned word here)”

      That’s the famous quote. Progress dies because everyone nitpicks it to deal. Obama wasn’t perfect therefore he is Hitler, that is what people think of this as.
