Look, it's time to take stock and move ahead, we need to focus on the here and now and try to do some good, and prevent some bad.

To that end, I recommend that both liberals and leftists focus on performatively scolding imaginary interlocutors from the other group over semi anonymous forums.

The neoliberal Dems are currently rubber stamping Trump's fascist agenda

They aren't interested in helping people.

Liberalism doesnt fucking exist in America, its called neoliberalism and its racist af. Do you all not realize how far right wing America actually is or do you just love to play stupid?

It's very nice of you to assume it's an act.

(But neoliberalism is by definition a branch of liberalism, a broad ideological grouping that includes America when it had widespread chattel slavery and Manifest Destiny)

We do, some of us are disgusted by it, some of us love it (we love fascism here in the US of A), it is just centrist status quo managers that pretend or actually believe that the goalposts aren't all completely determined in their location and manner by the rightwing and the rich, subject to erratic and sudden unrationalized major changes.
