I honestly think liberals and conversatives aren't the same. Their motivations are fundamentally different but for whatever reason a lot of liberals are also conversatives as they are afraid of changes as those changes makes it less predictable and predictability is important when talking about liberties as there isn't really any liberty in random events. At the same time, a lot of people are culturally conversatives even in left wing circles. So you got a lot of liberals who are afraid of change (especially because it is a threat to their portfolio) who think that e.g. women and men were equal by law anyway and companies should be allowed to promote whoever and if they are men, they are men. LIBERTY!!! The wife should stay at home but that is tradition and fits in their "liberty". Now you might wonder how is a conversative different? Not at all in action but they don't really care about liberty but about tradition and safety.
BUT down the line, if conversative fall into their favorite little fascist hole, liberals will be fighting conversatives because now they are affected.
