I find that the online left is as punishing of any disagreement with the agenda as MAGA is, if not even more.

What a shock, you find people who you disagree with disagree with you more than people you agree with. Very interesting insight.

Lol, it applies as strongly to liberals as anyone else. Get this horseshoe theory bunk out of here.

How so? At best it would have equal claim

He meant Taiwan. Which is the original China.

Average sinophobe: completely uneducated about even the basic facts of China

The specific uniform of the thugs brutalising protestors is really not the important part.

I believe equally strongly in personal freedoms and individual rights. I think that makes me liberal.

Depends what freedoms and rights you're talking about. Everyone says they're for freedom and rights, more or less, the difference is in what they consider freedom, and what they consider rights.

Are those the people everyone thinks of when the word liberal comes up?

Nah, those are libertarians.
