My understanding is that the subtext of liberation theology is that that people who espouse it —take the low view of Christ. That is, that Jesus is just a man and not as well fully God.
That would come in contravention of the Nicean Creed.
Is that correct?
(This is the same heresy that is practiced unofficially in the liberal protestant churches that fell over dead in Europe and are currently dying in the USA. Its done soto voce.)
It's marxism with a Christian veneer. Substitute "proletariat" with "the poor", justify the "preferential option for the poor" with proof-texting and characterize the "class struggle" as a spiritual endeavor rooted in social justice. The consequence of such thinking is the psychological demotion of Christ the King, Lord and Savior to a social-worker type figure.
