I mean, this is how I see it: Modern liberalism was too different from classical liberalism, so libertarianism had to have a different name for their classical liberal believes.
Lmao no, they're not "classical liberals". is this bait?
Of course they extended it with minimal state. But how I understand it, they are very similar.
In contrast, modern liberalism is more like how EU works with its big tech regulations. This is in contrast with the classical free market ideology. Market is not fully free under modern liberalism, because everyone sees its injustice.
Also modern liberalism is interested in social justice like LGBTQ, while the classical is not.
Am I incorrect?
Yes, you are incorrect for dozens of reasons and using multiple terms incorrectly.
