FDR only implemented the New Deal because social strife was intense, and the soviet union was showing an alternative. Environmental protections were only passed because the working class struggled for them, especially indigenous peoples. Policy that benefits the working class does not get handed down from benign rulers, but is something forced out of their hands.
Liberals are not on the side of leftists. Historically, for these measures, liberals have often opposed them, such as the civil rights movement. Liberalism itself has consistently been wielded in the name of countless atrocities and social injustice since its inception.

Absolutely completely correct.

Also correct.
I still feel like someone throwing firebombs at FDR (along the lines of vandalizing AOC’s office because she’s “pro-genocide” if you ignore all the anti genocide she does), because he’s a “liberal” and therefore an enemy and the labor movement were the ones that did all the progress, would be making an error. That is what I am saying.
Not a single person here is advocating for adventurist terrorism, though. When leftists state that liberals are not our allies, the answer isn’t to kill them, but to bring the liberal working class into our ranks through organizing and educating. The liberals who side with capitalism, try to persuade the working class into accepting concessions, rather than revolutionary change and social liberation, who try to box us into the narrow frames of electoralism in a system set up by capitalists, are ideologically the enemy of the working class.

FDR was also responsible for expanding the US Empire, putting millitary bases in Antigua, Jamaica, Guyana, and more on 99 year loans from the UK. AOC has caped for Israel and the DNC. These are not enemies because of a label, but because of their actions. In their natural state, without being forced by the working class, they will continue to serve the interests of the US Empire.
