    In North America, they call leftists liberals & don’t split hairs like Europe & Latin America.

    In Europe and Latin America, liberalism means a moderate form of classical liberalism and includes both conservative liberalism (centre-right liberalism) and social liberalism (centre-left liberalism). In North America, liberalism almost exclusively refers to social liberalism.

    People in the US get seriously confused that the Liberal party in other countries (eg, Australia) isn’t liberal.
