Liberals actually believe the second paragraph of the Declaration of
Independence is more than pretty words:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they’re endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. Among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” — which is the ultimate good — “That to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.”
In a nutshell, a liberal is about life. You cannot have liberty or equality in your life without justice. Justice is perverted without truth and goodness. Life without beauty isn't much of a life at all.
Liberals support justice, liberty, equality, truth, goodness & beauty. Liberals have empathy, sympathy, compassion and value community. Liberals back those up with what they do and what they support and what they say. Liberals are for life. That comment sounds controversial for some on the other side. Not to me.
Mortimer J. Adler wrote "Six Great Ideas: Truth–Goodness–Beauty–Liberty–Equality–Justice" published in 1981. That's a deep dive into those six ideas. It's worth a read.
