I've been a liberal since 2015. Leftists using liberal as a pejorative are šŸ’Æ what recruited me.

what did you call yourself before and how did the impulse to contrast Leftists arise?

The rise of the alt right (Gamergate, Brexit) sharply shifted my central focus from anticapitalism to antinationalism. The rise of Trumpism made me a staunch electoralist, and the aggressive antielectoralism of the American left got me to finally self identify as a liberal.
