- Neoliberalism refers to an economic doctrine (Reaganomics / trickle-down) — not 'liberal' social policy. Why do so many people conflate the two? It’s irritating af. They are entirely different, often opposing, ideologies.
- You’re misunderstanding the meaning of the term ‘liberalism’
- Your article seems to be blaming 'Liberals' for neoliberalism, yet not a word mentioned about the Conservatives who invented it. Waste of my time.
- North Americans do not understand the meaning of the term ‘liberal’. Liberals ‘invented’ neoliberalism. I would suggest it’s actually a very good use of your time to go and do a bit of research. May I suggest starting here: www.versobooks.com/en-gb/produc...
- True but that has nothing to do with the use of the term 'liberal' that is used to designate a partisan political positioning. Liberals are not liberals, in other words, far from it. Conflating the context of the use of the word itself does in fact confuse things IMO./
- You guys use the word liberal differently to everywhere else on the planet! 😂Apr 23, 2025 17:07
