Link one that says it is not. I already backed my claim. Liberalism is a form of capitalism with private ownership of the means of production. By definition.
Therefore it is not on the left. If you want to find the word centrist in the definition you're moving the goal post.
Liberalism (neither classical nor modern re-brandings) does not relate to capitalism, or the ownership of the "Means of Production" (which the astute reader recalls, includes
SHOVELS AND SEEDS in your dystopian vision) but rather liberty versus oppression.
the Liberalism of the enlightenment age did not have a thing to do with who owns what, but rather whether you OWN YOURSELF. the only property redistributed under Classical Liberalism was The Serf.
modern leftist "Progressiveism" also does not particularly deal with the ownership of property, as "liberalism" freely encompasses communists, collectivists, capitalists and even trillionaires like warren buffet and george soros under it's banner.
modern "liberalism" is simply Newspeak for Government Control of thought and deed, reducing the populace to subservient drones who must never speak out against their "betters" lest assholes like you label them as being "Negatively Correlated with Intelligence"
for somebody weho screams and crys when an ACCURATE labelk is applied to your ideology (Marxism) you sure do love to slap INACCURATE labels on everything and everyone who comes in reach.
