Liberal, to me, is anyone who supports any part of pro-capitalist ideology and goals, whether it be

1. settler-colonialism/right-libertarianism (America's process to becoming such country)

Also known originally, as propetarianism/classical-liberalism, a le John Locke and Adam Smith...

2. neoliberalism/IMF structural adjustment of exploitative debt and cuts of social spending, privatization (post-cold war economic policy of capitalism, a l'Amerique, to expand capitalism,)

3. pro-west regime-change NGOs, gulf-state-esque collaborators, and comprador nation-states (post-cold war foreign policy, to defend capitalist interests)

Liberals change and flow, by their material conditions and situation... in fact, libs only occurred as a result of bourgeois (bourgeois now is a historical term to me) classes trying to justify themselves as a whole, as the new dominating system

Eg. One liberal in rev. France may support beheading monarchies, while a whig lib or Kerenskyist lib in the U.K or Russia may support the Royalty itself

Well they literally called themselves libs so I guess I just trusted them.
