    I didn’t suggest that they were black and white, my point is that liberalism’s ties to capitalism are because that’s the purpose of liberalism. It emerged as the capitalist class was rising as future justification for the transition from feudalism to capitalism. You cannot have a “liberal socialism,” as liberalism is focused on private property rights.
