    Liberal does not mean leftist outside of the USA. Liberal actually means what is called libertarian in the USA.

      in most contexts here ive heard “liberal” used to describe neoliberalism rather then leftism or libertarianism (though I know many conservatives in the US use it as a catch all for the left)
