Classic liberalism is a progressive mind set. That society should build upon itself to improve, not stay stagnant with out dated tradition and ways of life.
They have lived under dictatorship, socialism, communism for centuries, American freedom is something to be proud of. If it aint broke dont fix it, pffft, outdated system pffft. If we were going to truely evolve we would create a system with no money, no powerful leaders and no military. Until then we are still the same. Blows my mind people think we are different then we were 1000 years ago, I bet we weren't any different 6000 years ago. People say we are smarter and more evolved too pffft, nobody can agree on anything and I bet if you cut the power and kill the internet you will see how fast we turn back into animals! Americas society is not improving when your taking freedoms away, America has become exactly what our forefathers fought to escape and now there are people bent on making even worse with socialism! Absolutely NOT will a country be free when you disarm the men of that nation, absolutely NOT will men be free when the government controls every aspect of your life, your pockets, your home, your church, your work! this is what we are heading to and people think we are progressing!!! PFFFFT for every law that is written there is another freedom taken from us! We need to get ugly and just remove those in power who are trying to destroy the constitution and shoot em for treason! all of them!!
The term Baizuo (or white-left) was firstly introduced to Americans by Fox News, which is similar to “regressive left” in the context of western world. In China, Baizuo literally means those Europeans and Americans who speak “love and peace” everyday but do not know the difficulty of survival and the complexity of real world. Meanwhile, they also distort the spirits of left-wing and result in the reversed discrimination, aiming to appeal to political correctness. Some examples are:
For example,
People who only care about homosexual marriages and talk about this topic every day, but discriminate against or even persecute heterosexual marriages.
People who only care about minorities and talk about this topic every day, but discriminate against or even persecute majorities.
People who only care about immigrants and talk about this topic every day, but discriminate against or even persecute local people.
People who support terrorism under the banner “multiculturalism”.
Animal rights advocates who persecute human rights.

OP proves that:
1. Someone made a Youtube video.
2. An "independent website" writes an article that just happens to quote from Urban Dictionary virtually word-for-word.
UD - baizuo and it's only other "citation" is to a website entirely in Chinese (Zhiho.com. )
Convenient that.
Translating (Google) it you find discontent with all White (Western) elites, not just liberals and they certainly aren't criticizing Marxism.
Go look at it for yourselves. OP is seeing what their biased article tells them to see, IMO.
is a Chinese epithet meaning naive western educated person who advocates for peace and equality only to satisfy their own feeling of moral superiority. A baizuo only cares about topics such as immigration, minorities, LGBT and the environment while being obsessed with political correctness to the extent that they import backwards Islamic values for the sake of multiculturalism.

Yeah.
That's the Urban Dictionary material.
The actual term baizuo is making fun of that "American dream" you're talking about.
(That you are unintentionally promoting a anti-white, anti-Western racist term was the ironic part to me.)
The only things I don't agree with are the implication that one person speaks for Chinese people, and the obvious hoaxing nature of your cited article in the OP.

What does this rant have anything to do with a classic liberal society? You're just going off on a "AMERICA F*** YEA!" mentality here.

So, continue to confirm your bias and stay inside your bubble. Why branch out?
Do you see the irony? Remember back when google announced how they would tailor their results to you and how people complained that it would just be confirmation bias? I do.
Well, look at what we have here, that we just happened chanced upon a random youtube video in our feed, that happens to...wait for it....
**plot twist**
Confirm our bias.

Asians have a friend in the White House now. President Trump's administration received enough Asian petitions (and Indian) to get rid of the program that encouraged colleges to admit Black/Hispanic students who had lower test scores than Asians.

Then stop overproducing goods.
We have to protect our farmers to you know. Why should other countries have to bow down to run away capitalism of the states because American's don't eat enough of your own cheese and drink enough of your own milk?
These tariffs aren't put in place to screw you guys over, it's protect our industry from your over saturation of the markets. There's a reason why you dump over 200 million gallons of milk a year and the government needs to buy over 30 million of un bought dairy a year, because they are stuffing to much product at the boarders where WE DO NOT WANT IT!
And even if we broken down trade barriers, the damage has been done, we only have 36 million people, you honestly think we can't get the word out to just boycott American products? We already ruined Heinz, we can do it again.

Nope. You're wrong. Simple as that. The us has tariffs in place just like every country has for specific reasons. Trump wants a trade war to take down the barriers and gain the upper hand. He sreverting back to colonization tactics. Its twisted. And he's twisted your mind as well.
And clearly you don't consume enough dairy since you dump so much of it down the drain. Maybe Americans need to focus on themselves rather than dominating the rest of the world for once.
