    You only think /politics is left wing because they banned all the left wingers.

    Also, liberals aren’t left wingers. Have you ever heard an anarchist or a socialist talk about a liberal?

      I hear what you’re arguing. People are much more complex than “left” and “right.” But, colloquially, the people on r/Politics, are left wing. They support abortion, and gay marriage, and trans people, and universal healthcare, and higher taxes, and a hundred other values typically shared by those on the left.

      Old school liberals are certainly different to what we see on the left today.
