You are technically right yet still downvoted. These days these words have so many different definitions for different people that they've become nearly meaningless.
To be fair, I was expecting the downvotes. For two reasons:
1) For a long time, there was no "institutional" left in the United States; so in the US - liberalism was seen as the "left". This is slowly changing now...
2) The tech crowd wants really to believe to be progressive (because they work on "progressive" technologies); but in fact, I never saw so many real life liberals like among tech workers.
