    There's liberals and there's liberals, right? It's like how Marx talks about the Petite Bourgeoisie.

    Yeah. I mean, there's Liberals who have the ideology of Liberalism (neo and otherwise), and then there's libs. Who think they're Liberals, but much like with 'communism and 'fascism', have no idea what the word means. We just use Liberals as a catchall term around here, because most of us know what we're talking about in the context. I'd say it's the same difference between a Capitalist (an owner of the Means of Production) and someone that thinks being a bootlicker makes them a Capitalist.
