A RedLib, short for Red Liberal, is a liberal who adopts 'communist' aesthetics in order to give liberal ideology an exciting, powerful, and exotic edge. Red liberals project their own dreams of enforcing liberal values through ruthless fascist dictatorship upon Communist states, despite the fact that Communist states were explicitly hostile to liberalism (both cultural and political) and cosmopolitanism. The reason they do this is because their retarded boomer parents, who they hate, think Klaus Schwab, the WEF and Joe Biden are Communists. These liberals just adopt 'communism' to spite them.
'Red Liberals' often join forces with NATO-supporters, anarchists, and Trotskyites in order to wage campaigns of defamation, slander and disinformation toward orthodox Marxist-Leninists. Without the support of these elements, red liberals would be completely ineffective in their libelous attacks against Infrared.
Often, red liberals suffer the delusion that Communism is somehow pro-LGBT, despite nearly every Communist state recognizing the phenomena as a symptom of bourgeois degeneracy. They falsely attempt to portray the wholesale abolition of the Tsarist-era legal code in revolutionary Russia to imply an intentional tolerance of homosexuality - despite the latter continuing to be condemned by medical officials, prosecuted by common law, and once again officially criminalized with development of the Soviet legal system. They likewise will point to concessions made to Western-influenced NGOs by the East German or Cuban government as a vindication of their delusions.
Red liberals also appear to suffer the delusion that Communism and patriotism are incompatible, which proves they either have never read any Marxist-Leninist literature, or think the recent 'innovations' of retards like J. Sakai are somehow part of the official Marxist-Leninist canon, despite not being justified by any practical or historical achievements.
In all, red liberals can be characterized by an affinity toward cultural liberalism, cosmopolitanism, and petty bourgeois institutionalism combined with 'communist' aesthetics. Some notable examples of Red Liberals:
