    Then the semantic shift is towards a meaningless pejorative and doesn’t refer to any actual political ideology. By your definition, the only thing separating Bernie Sanders from being a neoliberal is him voting for a free trade agreement.

      You can debate whether specific individuals are neoliberal. The word is used to describe the policy of America from the 80’s onward. But please continue to argue against water being wet. It’s entertaining.

          So neoliberalism doesn’t exist even though I just typed it and looked up the definition? Got it.

            I’m the one quoting the definition. You’re trying to pretend it is “capitalist and free trade”

              Yeah dog, Imma trust the accepted definition of multitudes of others over your self satisfying definition you made up on the toilet.

                  I’m lost. What was your point again?

                  None of that describes any Democrat in office.

                  So, all those people that call them neoliberal are wrong. Got it. I’m going to keep calling them neoliberals. My Frankfurt School diploma demands it.

                    And unlike you, I’m going to keep using words in ways which are accurate to their meanings. Like a conservative insisting liberals are communists for supporting trans rights or social welfare programs, y’all just sound like idiots when you try to pretend liberals are Reaganites because they don’t want to demolish capitalism

                    If you really do have a diploma, you need some remedial education.
