Yeah, my point is that the specific thing he's saying is becoming more prevalent due to liberalism's supposed decline has nothing to do with liberalism at all. I understand his point entirely, and disagree with it.

Liberalism is like a reverse McCarthyist view on communism for Cliff - if it's good, it must derive from liberal ideology, and conversely all our ills can be traced to a worrying lack of Vitamin L. I'm surprised he hasn't decried global warming as a product of declining liberal values yet.
