Well, American liberals are pretty much capitalists that just want to spend more. Progressives might be more the distinction you had in mind

Agreed, as an American liberal with one crucial distinction, we want to spend more to return more. 15% of my pay goes to health insurance. I’d like to spend more on the government level to return more on a societal level

Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective.

A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves “socialist”. The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes “true democracies”. remember to censor usernames when necessary.

Please be sure to obscure usernames on posts to prevent doxxing.
