We liberals
Define 'liberal' - I consider myself a true liberal in that I am all for progress and the examination of new ideas and the absolute rule of logic and fact with a substantial feeling of helping out my fellow man. I am not much enthralled by the arts, personally, but I am very glad so many are who produce outstanding works that I would never have the capacity to try duplicating.
I adopt the 'conservative' label because that is the only place where logic, respect, true charity, common sense, real tolerance, courage and aspiration actually finds a home.
I try to avoid harping on "liberals" in my tirades against the evils of the modern culture that I think are destroying our nation, preferring to characterize this phenomenon as "radical left wing socialism," although I sometimes fall into the lazy nomenclature of 'liberal.'
I reject the tag of "libertarian" because that group seems to have a one-issue agenda = 'legalize dope' - and I am nowhere near that idiocy. I align with the rest of their 'small-government' assertions, but that is just an addendum to their main objective.
I suspect most 'conservatives' on here are pretty much the same as I am, with some outliers, mostly with alliance with the 'legalize dope' crowd.
So - what are you as a "liberal?"
Because looking at your list of "gotchas' you appear to be in the radical left wing socialist camp, rather than the rational, logic driven, aspirational true 'liberal' camp.
