Hasn’t been debunked by you or anybody, because it is true. Liberalism is what liberals say it is, and liberals say capitalism is liberalism. Really doesn’t matter what you think.

The ‘essence’ of liberalism is capitalism.

Liberalism generated the concept of ‘laissez-faire’, which is the basis of modern capitalist thought. While liberal philosophy is greatly concerned with the concept of rights, it is not at all concerned with the concepts of equity or moderation, both of which must be addressed in order to challenge capitalism. You seem to have a misinformed view of what the ideology entails.

Israel launched a large-scale military campaign in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin early on Monday, conducting air strikes on several buildings as armoured vehicles and snipers surrounded its refugee camp.

Liberalism, being inextricably intertwined with capitalism, is a right-wing ideology. Tankies are often on the wrong side of the issue, but that’s because, like fascists and conservatives, they are reactionaries. Tankies take the side of certain established powers because those powers advertise themselves as resistance to liberal capitalism, without realizing or caring that fascists are manipulating their support. Actual leftists care first and foremost about harm reduction.

I don’t think you understand the pervasiveness of racial animosity.

Yes, greed. Google is an extremely profitable company, wanting more money than they already have is completely unreasonable.
