The term liberal has been so mutilated. The only other term equally as mutilated is socialist.

What’s so annoying is that they have been mutilated by the left bickering about what actually counts a left and not the right.

I think it's more that the right has tried to force itself into the left and demand we accept them. People who want to keep capitalism but simply reform it so that there are stronger laws are still pushing right wing ideology.

Absolutely not. The level of derangement needed to make this statement is insane. For decades we've been watching corporate and right-wing media push the idea of liberalism as far to the left as they can for nefarious purposes. I don't know why you're pretending that didn't happen.

The vast majority of people who support trans rights would self identify as liberals.

Eh, I dunno about that. They are until election season, then suddenly its "Blue No Matter Who, even if they don't support trans rights!"

True but I think this is more about liberal politicians. That addition would make it a bit more accurate.

Apples to apples would be comparing elected liberal politicians to elected anarchist politicians, in which case Tiger would be standing there alone.

That’s because anarchist politician is an oxymoron.
