Neoliberalism is a phenomenon with quite well defined characteristics, so no.
'Lefties' used to dismiss another's point of view as invalid withiut actually explaining why is just baselessly tribal and antagonistic.
- RobertKerans 10y agoOh, no doubt about that, it's distinctly unhelpful in any political conversation (unless the aim is to deliberately trying wind up the other person in the conversation)
- RobertKerans 10y agoWell, for the very reasons discussed here, that's debatable due mainly to it being turned into a snarl word, mainly by those on the left-hand side. But yeah, definitely so re your second point, it is needlessly antagonising, and destroys measured political discussion (as it always has and always will)
