What are you on about, fam? Liberalism is the hegemonic ideology under capitalism. Literally every single comrade on here got radicalised and moved away from liberalism. Except for those who had been on the road to fascism, but I don't get the feeling that's many here. No one was born with theory already uploaded to their minds.
Individual people who were liberals can radicalize left, yes. But at the same time, history shows us that liberals, including demsocs and socdems also have a tendency to radicalize right as a group when push comes to shove. The comrades here on Hexbear are probably, quite generously, 10% of the liberals who became radicalized. We are outnumbered by 4channers, incels, white supremacists, Christian nationalists, etc etc by a lot and most of those people were part of the hegemonic ideology under capitalism before their radicalization.
