I've got a news flash for you, bud: dictionary definitions don't tell you everything.
Here is the first DuckDuckGo result for "liberal vs leftist"
Please read it and get back to me
This discusses the political liberal parties in a US/british context.
The liberal parties do not hold the beliefs as defined below.
Which of these are not leftist ideals?
What you are describing is progressivism, which is a rather broad umbrella encompassing both leftism and liberalism. Since it's apparently my job to explain this to you, leftists think the rich should pay their fair share whereas liberals are pretty fond of billionaires all things considered.
Here's the second DDG result for the same query. I find it answers the question much more satisfactorily
What I'm describing is liberal ideology, as it is what the definition of liberal is when you look it up.
This is my last post responding to the definition of what liberal is, I don't care any more.
