I routinely have my accounts deleted because there is no statement I won't challenge or counter even if it means rejecting a person and condemning them but I won't do name calling and pointlessly insulting.

If that's what you think as a leftist, I can happily live with you while disagree. On several things, I think I would disagree with you on policy but I would agree with you about the principal. Some other things, we would have to disagree and simply leave it at that, but there would not be any kind of animosity or hostility.

I'm fully with you on all of that. No matter what person believes, anything and wverything, it does no harm to you until they act on it.

If someone never tries to take your money and never tries to break your leg, their views and beliefs are of no consequence to you.

I think I can agree to some of what you say, I distinguish it as being the difference between right libertarian vs left libertarian. While they both agree on cutting government regulations, cutting government soending, cutting government power, I would argue that a right libertarian has more in common with a conservative, although also some very large differences, than a right libertarian has in common with a left libertarian.

There is a difference, sometimes a large difference, between liberal and leftist, but yes they are both to the left of conservative. It's too bad that the Conservative party does not allow for libertarian voices. I suspect that the powers in charge of the Conservative party are strictly right wing and only tolerate conservative individuals so that the party can keep its prestige but block libertarianism because that could bring too much transparency.
