One thing (among many) this whole Joe Pizarchik experience has taught me is that the political spectrum is not a straight line, right to left (or vice versa). It is a circle, where far right and far left meet. They use the same tactics, they have the same black-and-white view of the world, and they don’t want to hear any opposition. The very definition of liberal specifies allowing other points of view—therefore the far left is not liberal, it’s just another group of holier-than-thou extremists with its own set of sheep.
