This presumes the liberal view that liberalism is truly "freedom from the government" whatever that means(it's not) and that such a thing is a requirement for a leftist position (it's not)

And you are presuming the discussions being had are about capitalism when they are still debating the role of the government in private ownership.

It’s a eurocentric position. It’s odd how many “leftists” fall into this.
