    Nah that’s just the stereotype for feminists (which is not at ALL representative of feminism)

  You’re looking at the wrong axis.

  American liberals mostly - though not exclusively - tend to be capitalistic. American conservatives are definitely capitalistic. Their disagreement largely centers around “should we or should we not make any attempt whatsoever to be egalitarian”
