Liberals include democrats and republicans and depending on the views of each independent, them too. In north america, "liberals" usually refers to followers of social liberalism as opposed to conservative liberalism. In other places, it can mean a commitment to limited government and laissez-faire economic policies. It's much more complicated than that but that is a little info.
There's so much ~~hostile~~ sarcasm here I'm not sure what you believe in but hopefully that helps.
Edit: I can sorta understand since they said shitlib, but not only conservatives use it, it can be used by leftists (actual left wing, not US left wing). So I took out the hostile part.
