      Yes, but the above one is the most consistent that would cut down all those discussions.

      I mean, liberals by really almost any definition will still be pro-Capitalism, from Classical Liberalism to American Democratic Party liberalism. Once people go further left, into anti-Capitalism, they almost always stop using that label.

      There varying definitions of a lot of words, and most of those variant definitions are wrong

      Anytime someone says liberal on Lemmy it will mostly likely refer to modern liberalism in the United States.
