Get the Socially Liberal, but Fiscally Conservative mug.The kind of privileged Westernized diaspora East or Southeast Asian liberal that you don't like, whether it's because they're too liberal for supporting affirmative action, or it's because they're not enough of a communist
For the past few years, much of Asian American popular media has been heading down a regrettable, cringey consumer-capitalist path called boba liberalism.

Get the Bootlicker Liberal mug.A democrat or political left-winger(2 different things) who tends to be subjective in their political views. Political subjectiveness is ok to some degree, but I think that some people tend to get carried away or be unrealistic. These types are somewhat of sore to American society, but on the other hand help balance out crazy redneck or bureaucrat conservatives. Both could be done without in the end because of their serious bias on everything that ever happens.
There are few types of people who fall into this group:
1.Activists-the troublemakers who are
violent and crazy but try to cover up by pretending that their motives are moral.
2:Stoners-people who have taken a lot of time to think through where they stand politically, and realize that violence is an ineffective way to reach their goal, even if the establishment is refusing to listen to them. These people think Bush is a terrible president, and give logical reasons.
3:Metalheads-people who have taken a lot of time to think through where they stand politically, but are too carefree to do anything more than write music about it. Also, they are pessimistic and feel they will never change anything. This group also has logical reasons for hating Bush, such as the fact that the only Iraqis killed by Sadam were rebels who were trying to assassinate HIM.
4.Nobodies-people who really have none of their own views, but will make themselves think they believe in anything that is popular. Once they have a cause in mind, they will gather any evidence, without even thinking through it enough to realize it doesnt make any real sense. This group is very anti-Bush, but cannot give logical reasons why he is a bad president, such as the fact that he has a Texas accent(No shit. How is that a problem?)
Bleeding-heart liberal, or bleeding ass liberal is usually used by right-wing conservatives to refer to any and all democrats or liberals.
Middle-roaders like me use it for any person who thinks only about the benifit of individuals rather than society as a whole. In other words the kind of person who believes that we must not leave anyone behind, even if helping them would be a drag one the whole group. Someone who not only believes that, but will not waver on it no matter what, that is a bleeding heart-liberal.

These examples are simplified because a realistic example would take to long to think of and type. Enjoy.
Bussinessman A: We just bought out that from Georgia, so we can finally expand our bussiness to the rest of the US.
Bussinessman B: We still got to watch out, before we know it the bleeding-heart liberals will be on our ass calling us a monopoly. You saw what happened with Bell Atlantic.
Redneck: That rabbit threatened ta kill my family, and the only thing keepin` me from shootin` the li`l terrorist is them damn bleedin` heart liberals.
(note that not all rednecks are crazy like that.)

Get the bleeding-heart liberal mug.A modern conservative using an outdated term from the 19th century to identify themselves. Essentially, a classic liberal believes in an unregulated free market, like a conservative, but doesn't care about social freedoms and benefits, because those beliefs don't benefit corporations (so shut up minorities and people of atypical sexes and gender identifications; and fuck you, welfare programs). So yeah, they're just your average conservative. The point of using this name for themselves is to make their politics more appealing to the masses, as they assume most people won't know or have the inclination to look up what a classic liberal is.
Guy 1: "I'm not a conservative anymore. I'm a classic liberal now!"
Guy 2: "So you're a conservative with a Trojan horse name?"
Guy 1: "NO! FUCK YOU! THAT'S FAKE NEWS!!!! STOP STIFLING MY FREE SPEECH!!!! REEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!"
(Guy 1 then proceeds to fling his own feces at everyone around him to distract from being exposed)
