The real "liberal" goal is a dictatorship of regulatory agencies filled with progressive experts who believe they can take better care of the people they govern than the people themselves. "Liberals" don't even bother to ask for the consent of the governed, because they believe the governed are too stupid and ignorant to give informed consent.
In the US, the Constitution has a doctrine of separation of powers. However, regulatory agencies like the EPA, have rule making (legislative), law enforcement (executive) and administrative hearings on the regulations (judicial) all in a single agency. There is no separation of powers in this structure, but "liberal" jurists use "living Constitution" interpretations to make the Constitution say whatever they want it to say.
When the dumb voters choose to vote for a rude crude guy who promises more freedom and less regulation, "liberals" start a coordinated program to remove the duly elected president by unconstitutional means. Who are the fascists? The people who voted for Trump and won the election according to the Constitution, or the people who lost and will use whatever means it takes to overturn the outcome of the election and overthrow the legitimate government?
Government by regulatory agencies is generally unpopular. As these agencies intrude into more areas of life, diversity of ideas is surpressed by enforced country-wide regulated uniformity. People may not know exactly what's wrong, but the Western Democracies all have the same regulatory overreach and the same unrest. The ruling regulators are certain they know best. The people disagree. The voters will flail wildly until they find escape from the regulators.
