Classical liberals want to produce more freedom and give it to everyone (unjustified lack of freedom = oppression). Progressive leftism seems to understand freedom as a limited resource, so it has to be redistributed (unjustified surplus of freedom = privilege). Discuss.

there's always a point where your freedom to do X limits someone else's freedom to do Y. thus there's a limit, and balancing these is a complex problem

That depends on whether the freedom consumes a scarce resource, or depends on the exploitation of others. Your freedom to have arbitrary kinds of consensual sex, or to wear an arbitrary costume, or to discuss arbitrary ideas with your friends is probably not in that category.
