      Liberalism is a capitalist ideology.

      The criticism is that late stage capitalism corrupts itself and becomes fascism/technocracy/feudalism/whatever as the powers of corporation and state merge.

      That or everyone dies from ecological collapse.

      Of course, the idea that it’s not capitalism when the state does it is a core capitalist conceit. A lot of socialists are trying to have their cake and eat it too on the definitions.
