It’s an uncharted path
No, it's not. This is thoroughly charted territory. It just inevitably leads to more capitalism.
liberals tend to want to shift capitalism towards something more equitable
No, they don't - they try to reform capitalism to head off revolt against the capitalist status quo. That is why liberal reforms to capitalism (at best) only makes life better for a certain part of the working class - see how Roosevelt's GI Bill left black vets and their communities out in the cold for an example. When this fails to protect the capitalist order, liberal-types will happily co-operate with fascists to violently repress the working class - see Weimar Germany for an example of that.
If you are the reading type, I'd suggest Clara Mattei's The Capital Order: How Economists Invented Austerity and Paved the Way to Fascism - I haven't encountered anyone who explains the history as well as she does.
Liberals are not your friends - Malcolm X was perfectly accurate when he described them as "smiling foxes."
Have you noticed how liberalism is always pro-capitalism?
This is true... but with some corporations it's just a case of "fuck you in particular."
Oh, it turns out the US is the most prolific sponsor of fascist terrorism in the world?
You don't say!
I can... there are literally people who are willing to participate in Musk's Mars colonization fantasies. They stand about as much chance of success (or survival) as those people who got imploded in that Titanic sub - except their deaths won't be as quick and merciful.
