I figured that libertarianism ITTL is based more on social liberty and anti-authoritarian rather than the free market running everything that most libertarians are known for in OTL.
that's true- but that does not mean that social liberalism is libertarian- be it right-wing or left-wing libertarianism. It's impossible - soclibs support welfare which right-libertarians oppose and they support a private property-based market economy which left-libertarianism opposes.
the update does refer that minaprogressivism is a form of libertarian socialism, so it's definitely that.

Seriously, I don't know what about Jane Fonda gives you a boner. Nothing about her seems particularly dong-raising to me.
Is the Progressive Party going to be resigned as the American Lib Dems or will they actually pay a major role in the years to come?
Under the American system, even if they are at a small minority if they can get Senators elected then they have immense leverage
I guess it'll be like the New York Conservative Party OTL or the various left-wing parties in the first party of the century. (America Labor Party?)
Yeah, that sounds the most likely. Running in small races and staying away from the presidency.
Though, another potential path for it is for it to be a sane version of the Green Party
The Canadian Greens are sane. They're just a bit of a personality cult.
Maybe the Progressives can be like them.
