Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality, right to private property, and equality before the law.
Private property is foundational to capitalism, an economic system based on the private ownership of the means of production and their operation for profit.
There are two philosophies of capitalism: liberalism, when capitalism is running smoothly; and fascism, when late capitalism is in crisis.
And yes, I’m a liberal. I think people should have freedom.I believe private ownership over the means of production - and virtually everything else - to be sacrosanct.
FTFY.
Do tell, liberal… up until now, did you believe that the liberal socio-economic order’s inability to exist without fascist violence to be purely an unfortunate coincidence?
Soooo, again… up until now, did you believe that the liberal socio-economic order’s inability to exist without fascist violence to be purely an unfortunate coincidence?
Oh… so you’re going to blame China for the global genocidal orgy of murder, torture and rape that created - and to this day sustains - (so-called) “western” civilisation?
What other horseshit will you be peddling today, liberal? Will you be blaming Shaka Zulu for the Holocaust?
We could say the exact same thing about you, lib.

Oh, look… another lost liberal.
Shouldn’t you be off trying to pretend that your fascist cousin isn’t related to you or something?

Freedom to property, right?
Where did I say that?
You said it by saying you’re a liberal. The right to privately own the means of production is foundational to liberalism.

You must be a lot of fun at the parties you aren’t invited to.
Says the liberal trying to brigade an online leftist community instead of having a social life.
Don’t fret, lib… I’m sure your invitation to… whatever it is you think you belong to just got lost in the mail, okay?
Oh look, another strawman.
Why don’t you just admit that having fascists around makes you feel safer?
Your phantasms have no basis in reality whatsoever.
Soooo, again… up until now, did you believe that the liberal socio-economic order’s inability to exist without fascist violence to be purely an unfortunate coincidence?
What about the illiberal socioeconomic order’s inability to exist without fascist violence? And yes I’m talking about China.
Oh… so you’re going to blame China for the global genocidal orgy of murder, torture and rape that created - and to this day sustains - (so-called) “western” civilisation?

You’re making flat-earthers sound reasonable.
