Yeah we are not like that

Difference:
Liberal - if you appear racist, etc, I will say so.
Conservative - if you disagree with my worldview, I will harass you, pass laws that force you to live like I think you should, dictate what you can do with your body, how you will raise your kids, and what books will be in the schools that all of our tax dollars pay for.

3I say this as a left-leaning person, I think Liberals do have a tendency to tear anybody down at the slightest whiff of even potential unintended non-political correctness. “Oh, you misused the terms ‘sex’ and ‘gender’ in the point you were trying to make?” or “You’re attempting to say anything mildly critical about women or minorities?” or even just people having legitimate misunderstandings about issues will cause them to get accused of some flavor of -ism. Granted, Conservatives seem to go out of their way to be blatantly ignorant fucktards, but I think even fellow Liberals and middle-of-the-roaders aren’t spared from this treatment.
2I really don't understand what Liberal means in an American context. I'm a certified anarchist myself, hang out with left leaning folks from all walks of life, some very moderate, some more radical than I am and I never heard these types of comments and attacks. I sincerely don't get it. Is it some kind of Twitter trend I'm too lemming to understand? Are America and Europe so different? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for calling out racists and sexists, but I don't think I've seen those terms being applied to people for frivolous or far fetched reasons.
0When Americans say liberal they're talking mainly about social issues like support of LGBT+ rights, abortion, etc. They're also usually for social economic programs, although this can encompass a broad range of issues with varying amounts of support, like universal basic income, more safety nets for low income people, higher taxes on the rich, universal or easier access to health care, etc.
