Some people say they are liberal and others will argue their beliefs are not actually liberal. What does this mean? What's a fake liberal?

I would say he is confused. Or the person saying said liberal isn't a a liberal is confused. I would not characterize the person as a fake liberal unless he indeed knew what a liberal was and was intentionally trying to make others think he believed in the libereal cause when indeed he absolutely did not and tried to hide the fact that he did not.

"Liberal" is used by many different people to mean many different things -- and frequently used by people who are not liberal to mean "anything I don't like".

Liberal -- by the dictionary -- means one who favours a political philosophy of progress and reform and the protection of civil liberties, and who favours an economic theory of laissez-faire and self-regulating markets.

Very few people seem to actually use the word the way the dictionary defines it -- so your mileage may vary,

But you also have to face the possibility that they are liberal.. it's your views of them that are off... but who am I to judge.
