    They’re not one to one the same of course but they are intrinsically linked. Colonialism only was able to operate through liberalism. Colonial Charter companies is the means through which colonial imperialism was spread. You can’t say they’re not related. Every fiber of their beings are related. You could honestly say that liberalism wouldn’t exist without colonialism and certainly vice versa.

      Are you reading OK? I said they were linked.

      It’s still conflation of discrete but related, and yes in some respects dependent concepts to suggest that they are entirely synonymous. Yellowjackets are not bees.
