"Like racism and sexism, statism is the kind of moral vice that tends to enter the soul through self-deception, semi-conscious osmosis, and a kind of Arendtian banality, rather than through a forthright embrace; it is a form of spiritual blindness that can, and does, infect even those who are largely sincere and well-meaning."
Bleeding-Heart Libertarianism (Heartbert) also known as Neoclassical Liberalism (Neoclasslib) is a 
Culturally Left, Economically File:Cright.png Center-Right to File:Rightunity-yellow.png Right, 
Right-Libertarian Ideology that is the synthesis of Right-Libertarianism and Progressivism. Bleeding-Heart Libertarianism believes that negative rights and File:Lfree.png free markets are compatible, and are also complementary to the concept of File:Socjust.png social justice. Bleeding-heart libertarianism support open borders policy.
BHL has an alias known as "Neo-Classical Liberalism," but it is not closely related to Neo-Classical Economics.
Beliefs
Bleeding-Heart Libertarianism believes that the best way to empower the socially disadvantaged is through the upholding of 
civil liberties. Economically, it ranges from a 
social market economy to a 
free market economy. It sees File:Econlib.png economic liberalism and File:CultLib.png cultural liberalism as going hand-in-hand with each other to achieve these ideological adjectives.
History
The term "Bleeding Heart Libertarian" was first coined by Roderick T. long at 1996. They characterize themselves as "libertarians who reject an alliance with paleoconservatism." In March 2011, a group of academic philosophers, political theorists and economists created the Bleeding Heart Libertarians blog. Regular contributors to the blog included Fernando Tesón, Gary Chartier, Jason Brennan, Matt Zwolinski, Roderick T. Long, and Steven Horwitz. This blog finally announced in 2020 that it would no longer be updated.

Its ideals are based on LGBT+ rights, environmental preservation, carbon neutrality and control of global warming by 2040, fiscalism as opposed to tax increases, women's rights, pro-democracy, military service with civil service, pro-marijuana legalization, separate recognition of Taiwan and calls itself social liberal.

Relationships
Friends
Progressivism - Liberty, equality and justice, all in one!
Libertarianism - My other parent who also understands that freedom and equality need each other to work!- File:Pinkcap.png Pink Capitalism - Yay! You understand me!
Classical Liberalism - Love you grandpa!- File:Liberaltarianism.png Liberaltarianism - I wish you were more libertarian, though I do really like your cultural and civic stances!
- File:Socliber.png Social Libertarianism - Lib Unity!
- File:Glibr.png Green Libertarianism - We can both protect the environment and fight the state!
- File:Geolib.png Geolibertarianism - Wants to cut taxes and preserve equality!
- File:LeftRothbardianismPix.png Left-Rothbardianism - My more extreme friend. We both love Roderick Long.
- File:Libtrans.png Libertarian Transhumanism - Technological progress in the hands of the free market! Sounds Great!
- File:Libertfem.png Libertarian Feminism - You truly make my heart bleed.
Left-Wing Market Anarchism - He doesn't like to call himself a "capitalist" but he's still really cool.- Civil Libertarianism - He also wants gay married couples to be able to protect their marijuana plants with guns.
Helvetic Model - Literally heaven.
Frenemies
- File:RepubUS.png GOPism and File:Demcr.png Democratism - Libertarian Party is more progressive than Democrats, and more fiscally conservative than Republicans.
But in 2022, the Mises Caucus turned the Libertarian Party into another MAGA... - File:Conbertf.png Libertarian Conservatism - Among the factions of the cultural right, he is the most based. It's better to stay away from Paleolibert...
Populism - I like that you care about the people, but I don’t think your strategies are the best.
Neoliberalism - I'd like to think you're just a more moderate version of me, but that hawkish diplomacy of yours makes me think otherwise...- File:Neobert.png Neo-Libertarianism - Volunteers protecting civilians in other countries are socially just, but conscription and military Keynesianism are cringe-worthy. The friendship between Karl Hess and Barry Goldwater is a great story.
Libertarian Socialism - STINKY SOCIALIST!!! But at least you're a libertarian and socially progressive.- File:NeoEnl.png Neo-Enlightenment - Yeah... Sure... You are too incomprehensible. How you can be marxist, austrian, proto-keynesian, forceful and libertarian at the same time?
Enemies
National Libertarianism - How is this even libertarian?!
Paleolibertarianism - We have a lot of problems with our government, and you always choose to criticize on government protecting individual life, liberty, and property. Fxxk you. And you refuse Chase Oliver.- File:Hoppef.png Hoppeanism - If USA had refused to join the war and closed its borders during World War II, Hitler would have definitely killed Mises. Grandfather-libertarian paradox!
Blockiansm - Libertarianism is a people-centred philosophy of liberation, not an algorithm to justify wealthy paedophiles. You yourself admitted that there should be no justice in the world. Libertarianism is opposed because of you.
Conservative Socialism - More like evil-ism!
National Bolshevism - I hate your guts! I would bash your skull in if I wasn’t such a lover of peace!
Reactionary Socialism - Same as the guy above, but with even worse and more violent rhetoric!
Juche - You’re a totalitarian AND a socialist! You are also Anti-LGBTQ and that is NOT COOL!
Putinism - Russian soldiers drugs and have homosexual sex making you look like a clown. The war is your fault, no matter where our tax dollars go.
Trumpism - You call Chase Oliver an anti-freedom democrat merely because he is gay. Apparently you don't care about the Republican tradition of cutting spending.
Corporatocracy - Stop pandering to me you fake crony capitalist!
Welfare Chauvinism - You took the argument "you can't have open borders and a welfare state" the completely wrong way!
Fourth Theory - My bleeding-heart will never bleed for you. You are just pure evil!
Korwinism - For Pete's sake, PLEASE STOP CALLING ME File:Pedobert.png PEDOLIBERTARIAN! YOU'RE THE ONE WHO WANTS TO LEGALIZE CHILD P*RNOGRAPHY, SO YOU MUST BE PROJECTING YOURSELF!- File:AuthCon2.png Authoritarian Conservatism - AUTHORITARIANISM AND CONSERVATISM? MY OPPOSITE!
Avaritionism - NO. NO. GET AWAY FROM ME! I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU, YOU PSYCHOPATHIC BASTARD!
