If you consider yourself a "liberal", you should probably stop.
Liberalism exists on the same spectrum as what we conventionally call "conservatism". The only difference is deciding "who should make the rules for everyone else." aka "Who should be in charge".
If you think "someone should be in charge", you need to re-evaluate that thinking.
All of our unnecessary misery derives from decisions made by people claiming to be "in charge"
We need to take back control of our lives.
