I think a primary difference in the impulses that drive liberalism and leftism is that a leftist will realize they're taking part in something cruel and think "this is fucked up, I should stop" while a dedicated liberal will come to the same realization and think "welp, seal's broken, might as well go whole-hog evil."
How to spot a liberal: "No ethical consumption under capitalism."
The meaning has been perverted to mean "All consumption is equally unethical." And you can ignore the capitalism part entirely because of capitalist realism.
