It's fair. The entire word "libertarian" was created to distance themselves from liberals.
Otherwise these 'libertarians' would have just been liberal and defended liberalism (human rights), and liberal society might have been able to fight off the mammon.
If you aid conservatives/confederates and the corporate cause, it is not unnatural to be associated with them.
Libertarianism is a traditionally left wing philosophy that started in the 1800s. They're also typically pretty big on human rights and equality.
The more modern America-centric "tea party" libertarians fit what you're saying, but they didn't create the term.
