They were actually quite liberal...
descendant's of doesn't mean they are anyway.
Right and left usually pertains to economics and power structure, their political philosophies and bases are very similar in both cases. It's more of a reference to who should have the power.
social authoritarianism and libertarianism is different.
Back then the "left" was accused of being monarchy-apologists very similar to how todays left is accused of being national government-apologists. I remember criticisms of Obama being a "King".
Monarchism is a right-wing form of governance.
