    Ah, so it’s not that they’re conservative, it’s that they desire the same things conservatives want. But they’re totally apolitical, and it’s just a happy coincidence.

            I would love to hear more about how neoliberals aren’t conservative…

                Just because the two options you have to choose from are shit doesn’t mean they are still both shit - it is hilarious watching you Americans cry socialism about policies that in most of the civilised world would be considered right or centre-right.

                Google the definition of conservative and tell me how that changes based on what country we are talking about.

                " favouring free enterprise, private ownership, and socially traditional ideas."

                I’d love you to try and convince me that neoliberalism doesn’t fit under the above.

                    Actually, you are the one who assumed civilised was a dog whistle - how very problematic of you.
