      On Lemmy people deriding liberals are very often farther left, not conservatives.

          Lemmy did an odd thing. I replied to someone replying to the top comment (“bickering with liberals”), who had assumed that poster was a Trumper. The person I replied to even replied to my comment, then they deleted both and my reply somehow ended up attached to your comment instead.

      “Liberal” in this context is from a socialist/communist lens. It’s not what the US calls “liberal”. It’s just another name for a capitalist, as in what Adam Smith defined. “Economic” liberalism.
