Not clear on what 'liberal' really means in colloquial usage anymore either tbh. Anyone 'left of center'? A neo-liberal?

The CNN/MSNBC/Reuters crowd. The people who read those sources and that's their reality.

I enjoyed talking with the neolib crowd on Reddit. Wasn't really sure what they were all about, but I just looked and they're quite insane. Still, didn't ban me for my opinion, which is more than I can say for most liberal subs.

ACLU

They should be out defending Joe Rogan for his freedom to say any number of offensive things. It's so sad that organization has gone to shit. We could really use something like the ACLU.

Up until very recently I preferred 'liberals' to 'conservatives

Same, their core values changed.

Not them, but I did used to think Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert were credible news sources.
