    The opposite of liberal is authoritarian

    I’m afraid not. Liberalism is about as “authoritarian” as it gets - or do you classify the ongoing genocide the (so-called) “liberal democracies” are sponsoring in Palestine as (somehow) “non-authoritarian?”

    Sadly, “liberal” partys nowadays are mostly economically liberal (i.e. freedom for corporations, deregulation etc.)

    That is what they have ALWAYS been.

    I’m not from the US

    That doesn’t matter. Liberalism is a right-wing ideology - even in Antarctica, on Mars, or on the other side of the galaxy.
