  It doesn’t correlate with liberalism across the world.

  Really? Find me an anti-capitalist liberal. that should be very easy if this…

  It doesn’t correlate with liberalism across the world.

      No, Clyde. You’re not.

      You are just politically incoherent, like people who call themselves “fiscally conservative and economically progressive” (or whatever claptrap so-called “centrists” tell themselves).

      Liberalism fetishizes capitalism. If you’re anti-capitalist, you have abandoned liberalism.

      This is not complicated.

      Next you’ll be telling me you’re an anarcho-fascist.

  Of course you didn’t provide your own. That’s typical, sadly enough. We all know there are varying definitions, and if you’re going to undercut someone else’s, which may be a reasonable thing to do, why not bring yours to the table? … But only if you care to continue the conversation.
