The general, international use of "liberal" used here and in leftist circles refers to economic liberalism, which is favoring capitalism (private control of the means of production), free markets, and individualism.
I guess I find it confusing because (for me), the term liberal was used as a synonym for a lefty. I know left of US "liberals" don't like liberals, but that's more of a recent revelation to me
