Liberalism is the younger sister of Communism.
Then why is liberalism considered a leftist policy?Nah, @Epic Beard Man's definition was dead on. Communist regimes aren't known for free speech, human rights, LGBT equality, etc. which are cornerstones of liberalism. Don't just blindly believe what Uncle Cletus told you. Pick up a book.
