Chaps' 2017-18 NFL $$ Thread
I watched a good deal of SNL in those days, so I'm surprsied I don't remember this.
Anyway, just watched the whole 7-minute skit and unfortunately it's mostly a jab at conservatives. They're basically showing an absurdist version of a fugitive liberal (one of the last of his kind) living in a conservative dystopia, which sprung for Reagan's union-busting. There's very little bashing of actual liberals or their beliefs, except perhaps the character's somewhat effeminate mannerisms.
I've posted this before, but this is the only semi-recent SNL skit which actuall makes fun of liberals -- this one mocking comfortable limousine liberal types who are both self-unaware and racist, during the night Hillary lost:
It seems to be largely inspired by a classic All in the Family episode, where two black burglars make fun of Meathead for arrogantly claiming that he understands the plight of impoverished black men and their reasons for committing crime.
