Liberals and leftists have diametrically opposing ideals: the former wants to make a kinder Capitalism (an impossible task) and the later wants to destroy capitalism

Exactly. Destroying capitalism is an explicit plan that will specifically help people. Unlike liberals with just a vague goal of adjusting society so that everyone is treated fairly as equals.
That's why England and the USA destroyed secular democracy in Iran after they tried to nationalize the oil industry- to ensure everyone was treated as equals
The first one was pretty far along at the end of WW2, so much so that LBJ was able to add Medicare and Medicaid on top of it. The second one is just as impossible because, ask the Chinese, there isn't a great alternative plan. What you need is something that is part of both capitalism and socialism.
