Do any of them know what the word “liberal” actually means?

    This discussion is funny from a German pov, as our main local liberal party (the FDP) is pretty right wing and has been so since the 1940s. “Liberalism” always had a quite neative connotation to me therefore. They are also the party most open to working together with the far right (the AFD).

    Liberalism can be right wing or left wing. It makes more sense to structure the political specrum like this. But even that is far from prefect.
