When Republicans use the word 'liberal,' they mean the socially liberal, and anyone to the left of them. When socialists use the word, they use it in its original sense, to refer to market liberals, that is, people who think capital should be liberated from all restraint, especially democratic restraint. Republicans and all capitalists trace their ideological lineage from the intellectual heritage of classical liberalism.

There's a small dictionary of words in the English language that have been corrupted by right-wing grifters in the United States. See also 'The Libertarian Party,' 'Anarchism,' and the color red.
