Interesting, neoliberals seem to now support the authoritarian state, the various intelligence agencies, NATO going to war with Russia, censorship, etc.
Has been a strange shift.
- rgrieselhuber 4y agoI also remember when the liberals were anti-war and pro-free speech.
- kmonsen 4y agoLiberals/left side is significantly different from the establishment of the democractic party or neo-liberals. neo-liberals are supporting the current system, in a "nicer" way. Leftist, lets say Sanders or Warren wants taxes on the rich less war and more healthcare for everyone for example. A more equal society. The same can of course be said for the GOP, Mitch McConnel is very much for the continuation of what is now with perhaps slightly harsher rhetoric while the flank is very counter-revolutionary.
- reducesuffering 4y agoNo significant faction supports going to war with Russia (which would actually be the WW2-Era American choice, sans nuclear weapons, to just assist Ukraine in recovering its sovereign territory and maintain a peaceful global order.)
- kmonsen 4y agoThe establishment in the US (or Britain) always support those things (except going to war with Russia that if any support comes from the GOP).
