[Starman_Jones]

Liberals are people who believe in liberalism. This necessarily precludes them from being on the far left (and has for well over a century).

In the US “liberal” is often used as a short hand for “left wing”, Isaiah Berlin calls it ‘negative liberty’. Noam Chomsky describes himself as a ‘libertarian socialist’ and Bernie Sanders describes himself as a ‘democratic socialist’, both of these political stances are left wing, some would says “far left”.
