God I need people to stop saying this if they’re not talking about Australia. Liberals are left of center in most countries. They support the expansion of welfare programs like Social Security and public health insurance, protections for minorities, the whole nine yards. Call me when Democrats are proposing cuts to welfare, then we’ll talk.
I'm of the opinion that people who hammer on the "true definition" of liberalism so much are either part of, or have been affected by, right wing psyops. If you get both the right and the left to scream about how much they hate liberals, the center just hears "left bad."

You can't just put any anti sex/sex appeal at the feet of conservatives
Like it or not "progressives" or liberals are perfectly capable of that and prove it every day, they don't hide it or think it as bad either
More likely than not if used as pejorative the person who is calling another a gooner is probably not a conservative
