That’s true, but there’s also more than a few people around here who will insist they aren’t liberals and then when you find out their actual politics they’re just New Deal style liberalism
Depends on how you critique the CPC, for what reasons. If they are from a position entrenched in liberal viewpoints and US state department lines on China, then it’s fair to say they are liberal. However, there are legitimate ways to critique China from the left. They are slow to adopt widespread LGBTQIA+ rights, for example, and while this is improving, I’d personally like it to be going much faster. Saying the CPC is doing organ harvesting is not legitimate critique.
Yeah true. Some ppl around here will happily call anyone a liberal the moment they criticize the CCP though
