I've said before but the irony with that sub is that despite being named after a specific ideology it's woefully ideologically incoherent and mostly full of confused wannabe New Deal coalition liberals, when certain users post actual neoliberal takes they tend to be unpopular with the sub's population at large.
There's only really three things that unite the people there: being mindless Democratic partisans, essentially defining their liberalism as "I support all the good things", and rabidly hating anything remotely associated with the online "left"
Really enjoyed the "Why No Nuclear in GND?!!!!" freak outs. Fuckers over there looooove nuclear energy. But they also love free market solutions to energy problems.
Asking how you build a nuclear power plant without federal subsidies always gets a mix of "Muh Regulations!", "New Technology any minute now!", and "Shut up Leftist!"

They'd unironically blame zoning laws for the lack of privately-owned nuclear power plants
