In my experience, "liberals" on the Left are in denial of the radical factions they align with and will turn a blind eye to their violence and totalitarian views. "Liberals" prefer a nanny state that would "softly" punish dissent under the guise of rule of law even as they are blind to the soft-totalitarianism if these policies. There don't want the abolition of private property, but they will favor policies meant to make the rich pay their "fair share". In reality, the middle class, blue collar worker, and small business owner pay for it.
Leftists, meanwhile, want straight up revolution, wealth redistribution, trials, executions, and gulags.
