Liberal claptrap is pretentious nonsense promoted by liberals. It has the wordy characteristics of liberal style, typically with self-serving conclusions.
Liberal claptrap leaves the audience with nothing of substance, nothing that will help them personally overcome the inevitable problems of life, such as addiction.
