Fucking Alan Dershowitz calls himself a liberal.

Does that mean he is?

No.

Nor was he ever, even when he was considered in the in-group with liberals. He's always been a right wing crank.

What you call yourself is not a useful description of the political philosophy you hold. It just describes which tribe you consider your own, for most people.
