I mean it in the dictionary definition of the term: a person advocating or implementing social reform or new, liberal ideas. I'm aware there are conservative billionaires. I don't think that negates my view that you're more likely to see long term progress on many issues through private funding. US government budgets swing wildly every few years depending on what ideology is in power. By design, that's a conservative force (in the traditional sense). My government is simply not designed to do a lot of the things we sometimes want it to do, like cure malaria.
