They do the same thing as the right, where their politics is defined by “maximum freedom” and any divergence is a step towards the opposite pole. This is why rightists call Hitler a communist, and why radlibs call Stalin a fascist. They are unreformed libertarians lmao.
Liberals in general believe themselves to be the furthest left you can rationally be. Anything to their left is unreasonable, counterproductive, and functionally right-wing.
Even in undergrad humanities classes I see this all the time from lib professors. “Even in capitalist countries, some socialist policies like public education and healthcare are adopted” ??? I guess it’s good because it makes ‘socialism’ less of a scary word but it also makes it impossible to gauge what anyone is talking about because I mean expropriation of all major industries by a dictatorship of the proletariat, while they mean UBI or something.
This is nothing new. People have been doing this since well before Marx. Marxism was a reaction against these types of squishy utopian reformists who seem extremely abundant in western societies
Libs must believe they are as “left as it gets” or their own moral vision of reality breaks down. So those to the left of them either get ignored or demonized as “actually rightwing” so they can sleep at night
Also wtf is up with conflating China and the “far right”? Is communism the far right? What is going on in Reddit radlib town?

Some liberals even call themselves socialists because they saw a facebook meme saying the fire department is socialist.

It doesn’t have to make sense, it just needs to fit their interests (social democracy, the left wing of fascism).
People don’t typically understand what these words mean.
Far right according to nato leftists is when you have rules of any kind, just like hexbear apparently is
“Rule” and “right” are descended from the same word, checkmate, tankies.
