I literally don't know the difference. I see so many different political affiliations. Would either of these people be considered liberals? Honest question.
Depends on how you're used to using 'liberal'. By the US usage of liberal ("anyone who is not a conservative or reactionary"), both of these are liberals. But leftists often object to the term, using liberal in an older (and to some degree, more international) sense to mean supporters of market economies.
Now I'm even more confused lol. Thanks for the reply.
Us liberals like the aesthetics of the international definition, which is why they coopt it even though they disregard the most relevant distinction
Leftists to the democrats as they're both being led to a small room underground with a sloping drain in the back and a Trump 2028 banner on the wall:
"This is all your fault."

FTFY
The point isn't who's fault it is. The point is that both of them will be going up against the wall if trump wins. Laying blame won't save either of them.
It's not the time to point fingers, we're in this together, I say as I clean the rest of the neighbors's cat's blood from my pitbull
In this metaphor, The cops are coming to shoot you and your neighbor so they can take your pit bull down to the shelter and let him play with all the cats there.
The pit bull is fine and will remain fine. The pit bull loves the cops and can't wait to be let off the leash for real.
