Exactly my point. If you categorize the vast majority of people as liberals, any given subset of people is fairly likely to be entirely contained within that majority.
Depending on the time of the day and mood, they call anyone fascists instead.
It's like they didn't even bother trying to grasp what you said
I mean, I am more on the anarchistic/libertarian side of communism and certainly no ML nut even I think that most self proclaimed anarchists are cosplaying libs. Where I live there are two kinds of anarchists, the ones that just take drugs instead of doing any organising and the ones that actually organise and form alliances with generally likeminded groups. Sadly the second kind is vastly outnumbered by the first.
You've stumbled upon a dichotomy that exists in every ideology: those who have the skills, resources, and will to organize, and those who don't. Most MLs don't organize either, nor most neoliberals, or monarchists, or any other group. Organizing is difficult and time-consuming. An awful lot of people in this late capitalist hellscape have their hands full just trying to survive.
They organize enough to meet up to take their drugs and they also go to protests. They just don't want to actually plan stuff because planning teams are authoritarian or some bullshit. There is a reason why most of the more successful anarchist organisations work more and more like ml parties
because the first kind is real anarchism i.e. armchair resistance which does not threaten the state or the capitalist system
in the current system most active political people are liberals, from the MAGAts to wokechuds to anraKKKidies
