It's always funny to see liberalism used to defend oligarchy. Arguing simultaneously that AI data centers are critical for European sovereignty and that democratic institutions should keep their hands off them and let three American plutocrats build them wherever and however they choose is genuinely insane.

I don't know for sure, but when enlightenment thinkers pioneered liberal ideology and included in it respect for private property, I don't think they had in mind that the roads and water and means of transportation, communication, the land you live on and the air you breathe being the private property of a totally-not-a-king very smart businessman.
