It’s interesting that the modern “right-wing” (a rather nebulous term) seems to use “liberal” as a pejorative. If one is living in a Western society, I would hope that they recognize that it is generally founded on “liberal” ideals.
I mean, so far as I know, liberal is only a pejorative in the USA. Not heard it used that way in other political systems, likely because of the reasons you mentioned.

Generally not what happens, I can only think of one modern style democracy that does that.
Would you mind providing examples to clarify your point? I don’t want to assume meaning/intent.
Of course, happy to expand on my point!
