Yeah, most people don’t know there’s a difference. A lot of people who may be described as leftists if you examined their views might call themselves liberals.
Certainly the right doesn’t understand the difference, so they might actually try to disarm liberals if things come to a boil.

I think this subreddit in particular is fairly loose about what they mean by liberal, too. I’m pretty sure there’s leftists on there.
