Beliefs
Though liberalism is rather vaguely defined, and its definition alters depending on when and where the term is used, it is typically associated with values such as 
multiparty democracy, 
civil liberties, 
secularism, 
progressivism, 
internationalism, and a 
market-based economy.
What separates Liberal Democracy from 
Classical Liberalism is an emphasis on social justice and social equality as compared with its predecessor. Liberalism tends to support moderate means-tested 
welfare targeted at the poor to ensure people can meet basic human needs. He, also with his dad, Classical Liberal, influences a lot of liberal ideologies.
Variants
Liberal Internationalism
Liberal Internationalism is a foreign policy doctrine that argues that international organizations should achieve multilateral agreements between states that uphold rules-based norms and promote 
liberal democracy through things like 
humanitarian aid or 
military intervention. It is defined by achieving global structures within international systems that are inclined towards promoting a liberal world order through things like 
global free trade, 
liberal economics, and liberal political systems. These international organizations would include institutions like 
NATO, 
EU, 
UN, and the 
IMF.
Secular Liberalism
Secular liberalism is a form of 
liberalism in which secularist principles and values, and sometimes non-religious ethics, are especially emphasised. It supports the separation of religion and state. Moreover, secular liberals are usually advocates of liberal democracy and the open society as models for organizing stable and peaceful societies.
Cultural Liberalism
Cultural Liberalism is a social philosophy that expresses the social dimension of liberalism and favors the 
freedom of individuals to choose to whether to conform to cultural norms. Although, commonly referred to as 
social liberalism in the context of the United States, doesn't imply an ideology per say, and just the general attitude that individuals should be free to decide their own decisions regardless of the political ideology.
This follows the 
harm principle, as cultural liberals believe that society shouldn't impose any specific code of behavior on individuals, they defend the moral rights of nonconformists to express their own identity however they see fit as long as they do not harm anyone else.
Liberal Corporatism
Liberal corporatism is a liberal version of corporatism that recognizes the barganing interests of multiple groups within society, such as in the business, labor, and agricultural sectors and licenses them to engage in bargaining over economic policies with the state. This form of corporatism doesn't oppose individualism like a lot of forms of corporatism, which is where the political liberalism comes from, and is an influential component of the progressive movement in the United States, that has been referred to as "interest group liberalism". Liberal corporatism is commonly supported by proponents in Austria, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden.
Liberal Democracy
Liberal Democracy is a combination of a liberal political ideology that operates under an indirect democratic form of government. It is characterized by elections between 
multiple distinct political parties, a separation of powers into different branches of government, the 
rule of law in everyday life as part of an open society, a market economy with private property, the equal protection of human rights, 
civil rights, civil liberties, and political freedoms for all people. This the most known and common type of democracy in the west, and is usually refered as just " Democracy" in the west.
Personality
Liberalism is often shown getting easily angered or "triggered" by others and is shown to not be the biggest fan of violence. He is often schooled in debates.
However, he also has a secretive, wiser side that often acts philosophical and just.
How to Draw
Liberalism's design is based on a flag designed by u/Aransentin on r/neoliberal. The golden circle represents the world with the bars representing the invisible hand of the free market reaching around.
- Draw a ball with Eyes
- Make it blue (preferably (#006aa7) shade of blue)
- Draw a golden/yellow circle (#ffd700) and then make dents in it of the blue color. (Symbolizes the world being held by the invisible hand of the market)
You're done.
| Color Name | HEX | RGB | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blue | #006AA7 | 0, 106, 167 | |
| Gold | #FFE680 | 255, 230, 128 | |

Social Democracy - Like the above, except a little bit extreme at times. I'm still really glad you chose me over 
them.
Neoliberalism - Son, you helped preserve my ideas when the world was on the verge of forgetting them. You’re my primary ideological successor, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. You also know more about economics than any of my other children.
Liberal Conservatism - Tradition and freedom.
Conservative Liberalism - Aren't you LibCon again? No? Oh well.
Liberal Feminism - 👏 More 👏 female 👏 liberals.

Erdoganism.

Frenemies
- Progressivism - I often like your social values and you're currently the most successful cultural ideology in the First World, but I hate it when people confuse me with you
*cough*. Also don't hang out too much with the
*cough* socialists, please. 
Liberal Socialism - I like your dedication to liberal values, but socialism, I don't really like it...
National Liberalism - I appreciate your support for civil liberties, but your nationalism sometimes scares me.
Anti-Fascism - Look, I'm an anti-fascist too, but can you stop being so violent and beating up anyone who disagrees with you? Why dedicate actual time to fighting people when we can go on Twitter and peacefully complain about it? (Also, I like capitalism, can't you see that just a few reforms in healthcare would make America better?)
Kemalism - I am grateful to Atatürk for getting Fethi Okyar to found the Liberal Republican Party, but statism is stupid. Ataturk was too authoritarian but was better than the reactionary cuck Erdogan. At least modern Kemalists support me.
Chiang Kai-shek Thought - Lei Chen, Tsiang Tingfu, and Hu Shih supported you against the 
commies, but why tf did you shut down the Free China Journal? Also, the white terror was mega cringe.
Borisism - Tbh, you confuse me a lot. Are you a LibCon or a Trumpist? Brexit and right-wing populism are cringe, but at least you have some progressive social takes and centrist economic policies Ig. I still prefer the Lib Dems over you even though I support you against Corbyn the old twat and that disappointment UKIP.
Conservatism - Our relationship is pretty odd indeed. We constantly fight each other over cultural policies but in terms of economics, we are mostly chill.
Japanese Liberal Democracy - Not the best example of my system but I have to admit you make Nippon a better place.
Neoconservatism and 
Third Way - Spread my ideals worldwide, but sometimes in a manner that scares me.- Alt-Lite - He often hates my cultural aspects, but supports economic ones.
Pinochetism - You like free-market capitalism, but now you just made us look bad.

Anarchism - Without a state, there is no constitution and without a constitution is no right to consolidation.
Jihadism - Just leave me and everyone the f*ck alone, You fundamentalist terrorist!
