Only if you are eurocentric and accept liberalism as a default state. I would argue eurocentric perspectives are inherently problematic.
dude is openly liberal, regardless of what the default is in their part of the world (and its usually neoliberalism anyway)
Neoliberalism is absolutely not the default when we look at the whole world. If we look at the developed world it is the default. That is not the case for everyone.
Your binary only makes sense for some of the world. That’s why I keep pointing to how eurocentric it us.

which usually means liberal, yeah.
Did you mean default for lemmy or default for the system utilized by most nations? I took you as meaning the latter
both. its how most people understand the world, for better or worse (mostly worse)
