The rest of the world uses the name "liberal" for different things. I think left and (American) liberal are pretty much the same thing, but obviously since America has two words, America divides the left into two.

We used to think the conservative side of politics was fairly united, while the left was a mess, ranging from leninists through environmentalists through workers' rights through people into the public good (and a thousand other divisions)

Now that conservative politics has been replaced by a radical mix of authoritarianism, individualism, anti-government, so I'm not all that sure they're as united as they used to look
