The reason libs do this is because they're so extremely dogmatic that they don't even see their ideology as an ideology anymore but simply a "fact", and thus they don't see their political and economic system they advocate for as having anything to do with ideology but is merely based on "facts", so they ultimately see capitalism and support for capitalism as being devoid of any ideology. If there is no ideology involved in the justification, construction, or maintenance of a capitalist society, then you can't blame any ideology if people die in it. In fact, these people just view capitalism as "natural", and therefore, if anyone dies, it might be sad, but they died of "natural causes". Millions dying of a preventable disease because the system did nothing to respond to it, this can't be attributed to failures of liberal ideology, because to them, it's more comparable to like deaths from a hurricane. It's a natural disaster to them and nothing more.
