OK, I agree that libertarians are not liberals. They are mostly conservatives who don't want to pay tax.
I'm still not following on why you don't think Liberals are Left wing.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoliberalism
So not what most people think of as "liberals" then.
Neoliberals are to liberals what National Socialists are to Socialists.
Take it back to the dictionary definition.
Going by the first definition, that's left. Even going by that second definition, I see three left policies and a right. That's essentially a lefty being not left enough.
Case #363784589 of the most common feature of a liberal being not knowing what liberalism is.
It's not really your fault, it's entirely by design from the kind of people who hate both liberals and socialists.
