Or to neither one.

I have always found very narrow and biased, not to say parochial, the US
idea that "libertarians" and "liberals" are the two universal, eternal
archetypes splitting humanity at a political, ethical, anthropological
level.

This reminds me of an Irish joke, where a bloke introduces his Thai
girlfriend to his grandmother, and she whispers on the side "Why, is she
catholic or protestant?". "But, Grandma, she is a Buddhist!". "OK, fine,
but a catholic Buddhist or a protestant Buddhist?". :-D
