@gogs8166 For the most part, that's true but I don't think you even need to go that deep to understand what's going on. It's not merely a question of ideology though that's certainly part of it but it's really more a matter of cultural resentment.
Modern liberals... as opposed to classical liberals who are more in line with what we call conservatives today.... view themselves as an anointed class of people who are above everyone else and thus entitled to hold all the positions and levers of political, social and cultural power.
As a result, they feel they deserve to be, and indeed expect to be, revered and respected without reservation or question. When they don't get the reverence they feel is their birthright, they get VERY annoyed and begin to lash out.
When someone who is not of their class and clique gets a little too noisy or "uppity"... forgetting their place in the pecking order, you might say... the daggers and vitriol come out. "How DARE they??!!"
This is why you don't hear that much difference in how they talk about doctrinaire or moderate conservatives. To them, there really isn't that much difference. They are not "like" them so that, in and of itself, is sufficient justification for the vitriolic, class based hatred that is the essence of their existence.
They put on this grand show of concern about all things race and gender but the truth is they don't give a damn about any of it. All of it is just a set of tools with which to beat the "inferiors."
They are in a particularly acute stage of apoplexy at the moment because the PM of Italy is a woman and the PM of the UK is a "brown" person.... two cohorts they feel they have the exclusive right of ownership over.
