If they are NOT a fascist then “Liberals” means the neoliberal, DNC, “white moderate” types who arguably run as counterintelligence against the left, and help the right “sow the seeds of fascism”.
If they’re a fascist “Liberals” refers to EVERYONE left of fascism, as it is used interchangeably with communist, marxist, woke; whatever they don’t like.
Applies to Sweden as well. The liberal party went from proudly stating the far-right saw them as the enemy to adopting the far-right policies, implementing them, and calling it liberalism. That is stuff like prison for children, deportation for victims of crime, and still supporting and collaborating with them after it was – to very little surprise – discovered that one of their higher ups have a personal relationship to and is working with a very well known neonazi.
I’m trying to understand this meme, does it refer to classical liberals? Or is it just a euphemism for the US democrat supporters?
I’m not from the US so might be missing nuance.
Depends on the context of the OP/meme/audience.

Given the sub, this is the first one.
