My racist/sexist/generally terrible uncle calls me liberal, brainwashed and woke, not open minded.

Remind him a shepherd doesn’t keep his little sheep around for their nice company, he’s going to sell or eat them.

Communism is a liberal political and economic philosophy that finds its roots in The Enlightenment.

This is about as valid as saying liberalism is descended from Thomas More’s Utopia because he was an English humanist and thus all liberalism is Utopian thought. Or mercantilist, for that matter.

Kind of, sure, in the sense that socialism developed after capitalism, and Marxism and anarchism were mostly framed as having to develop from liberal/capitalist nations, but not in the way you mean it, or a useful way at all. For one thing, “liberalism” that doesn’t embrace capitalism is not liberalism ya goof.
