Saw, Luthen, and Andor I think were not liberals. Saw was like a trot or MLM (not MZT) who kind of was going off the rails a bit in terms of theory and practice but he wasn't a liberal. Luthen wasn't a liberal which was why they had to sideline and kill him off. Andor probably wanted more than what he got which was being a pawn of liberals but wasn't strong in theory though I think would have gladly been a foot-soldier for a more socialist rebellion led by Luthen by the end.
Mon Mothma absolutely was a liberal's liberal as were the Jedi, as were pretty much all the people on Yavin who were shown in leadership roles. So basically Mon Mothma should have been allowed to die (or been killed I guess because she knew too much), Luthen should have engineered killing off the rebel liberal leadership likely using Andor, held theory reading classes, and they shouldn't have trusted any Jedi and maybe things would have gone better.
