My observation of the Left is that they usually see "freedom" as distribution of wealth -- I should be "free" to sit around the house and do nothing because my house is free, my food is free, my energy is free. I should live in a free society because America is about freedom.

Of course, I disagree.

And now they seem to define "Liberty" as Oppression in which they force us to do their bidding:

Liberty as a type of freedom that holds us accountable for the welfare of the nation and all its people?

So, to them, I guess Liberty is about taking stuff from those who have it, and Freedom is about giving stuff to people whose votes need to be bought.

Liberty is a physical state. A freedom is a concept.

Pretty easy.
