As a leftist its also important to keep in mind we do differentiate between leftists who hold some opinions we disagree with compared to a Liberal who disagrees with us on nearly everything. Especially when said Liberals demand to be treated like leftists yet support imperalism, genocide, apartheid, capitalism, bigotry, and yet constantly call people "fake leftists" or "tankies".

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
And how do we do that?
This is the internet, everyone is as anonymous as they want to be. Lots of people find these posts by browsing by All, so they're not likely to be aware of (or care about) the rules for a particular instance. If a Liberal and a Leftist wander into the same community, it can be hard to tell them apart unless they've made politics their whole identity.
It's a strange state of affairs, there is a right wing recruitment pipeline deticated to making fun of liberals for being "cringe but also wrong"™.
An interesting experament you can do, replace "leftist", "the left" and "liberal" with "SJW" (swap the insider and outsider language) and ask yourself how much and in what interesting ways does the sentimate of the post change.

People who seek first to run away to greener pastures rather than try and maintain their own are the true scourges of society.
