You are a liar and you keep spreading this bullshit. Both sides in the US support economic liberalism. The US exclusively uses the term “liberal” to refer to social issues.
You can argue about whether that’s a good definition or not, but you CANNOT argue about whether that’s actually how it’s used in the US, both in everyday usage and political journalism.
You are spreading this shit because you like to intentionally blur the difference between Democrats and Republicans.
Then why are you trying to push this idea that “liberal” = “fiscally liberal”? Not only is it not true, it’s not even useful, as we have words like “capitalist” to describe the similar economic thinking between Democrats and Republicans (and I’m using similar very loosely here, it’s only similar when compared to something like socialism).
No, it absolutely does not. You are lying.
Yes it does. The Liberals in the US support Liberalism. Calling someone a Liberal means they support Liberalism in the US.

Both sides in the US support Capitalism, but the far-right is far more populist.

Liberal = Liberal, yes.
Liberalism is the dominant ideology of Capitalism, Capitalism the the dominant economic structure.
Answer the question. Why?
I’m not “pushing” anything. Liberals are Liberals, pretending Liberals aren’t Liberals is goofy.
Why do you care if the US uses the term “liberal” differently?
