Ask literally any person outside the US and liberal means centre-right

I don't live in and have never been to the US.

Sure, but you see a lot of MLs using the word "liberal" like Amish use the word "English". I got called a filthy liberal (or similar) at least 5 times in a recent discussion on lemmy.ml because I didn't support their treating Biden as worse than Trump.

It seems a good number of MLs will use the word "liberal" to mean both versions when it suits them. At least in America.
