It likely feels so because especially the people who live in the US have internalized all the propaganda. You are born into the 'free market' propaganda, and you never notice that it exists. Hence you don't notice any stark difference.
But overseas, the 'free market' propaganda was an immutable cacophony that dominated the privately owned press for ~40 years now. All the neoliberal reforms that were pushed on our countries were pushed by being backed and rationalized on that propaganda.
And now all the principles that were sold to us are being invalidated, being proven to be lies from the start.

Really, we cannot - there is one country that pushed all of this onto ENTIRE world. Forcing them to adopt its false religion and to privatize, literally sell out everything in every country to corporate profit. We got coups, regime changes, invasions, bombins to make it happen. The US did it. This is still going on. It hasnt gone anywhere. Even as the US itself closing its economy to everyone, its still forcing others to open up its economy.
Calling this out is long overdue. And that is something everyone including you, should do. Because the establishment that is responsible with this has no qualms in destroying its own for profit like it destroyed everyone else. And it is already doing that.
Its amazing how this even needs to be said...
