A political ideology that is characterized by the "snowballing" of political support from one person to another, with no end in sight.
In the case of the United States, it is now being used to rapidly increase policies of social justice, gun control, environmental issues, and anything else the left deems worthy without the approval of the people.
The term "snowballing" means increasing rapidly in size, intensity, or importance just like a snowball down the hill.
It can also mean the growing acceptance of a view or idea, often without the original proponent realizing it.

"Liberalism is a political current embracing several historical and present-day ideologies that claim defense of individual liberty as the purpose of government. It typically favors the right to dissent from orthodox tenets or established authorities in political or religious matters. In this respect, it is sometimes held in contrast to conservatism.
