minus-square@PugJesusOPlinkEnglish9•edit-22 days agoNeoliberal, originally speaking, is closer to bottom-right, insofar as its obsession is with deregulation, free trade, and market solutions. In common usage it’s become a catch-all for “Anything less than revolutionary that I don’t like”.
minus-square@RedactedlinkEnglish5•edit-22 days agoAh ok cheers for the background, seems the meme checks out if that’s its original definition. The definition I was running with is this: A political orientation originating in the 1960s, blending liberal political views with an emphasis on economic growth. Emphasis on economic growth means inherently subscribed to capitalism, hence my top-centre interpretation.
