Liberalism is the ideology of advocating for liberty.

Invading foreign coutnries and submitting them to production quota's at the threat of death is not liberty.

Y'know, I was expecting a word salad of being called an incel, instead this is just a word salad of calling everything a monopoly. Half of the things you point to here are governmental actions, not capitalism. Capitalism is an economic system, not an ideology, it doesn't control what the government should or shouldn't do.

If the global north would stop trading with the global south, to "fix" this supposed exploitation, people like you would be the first to start crying about how an embargo on the south is preventing them from moving up the value chain in production.

So imperialism is... not taxing people? That's a very fluid take on it

just what exactly is liberal about invading foreign countries and submitting them to production quota's at the threat of death?

Private property alone doesn't make capitalism, by that logic the ancient civilzations of egypt and sumer would already be capitalist. Capitalism is a collection of ideas, from the right to own private property to freedom of association, none of which is compatible with slavery.

Which is a big reason why the capitalist countries were the first to outlaw slavery.

Brazil? Their maximum tax bracket isn't even half of what I'm currently paying in taxes, and I'm not even in the highest bracket

Please, do tell me more about... let's say... the luxembourgish imperialism. Did they conquer any new nation recently?
