Interesting. Can you define neo-liberalism, and provide a link to support that definition, please? There are tons of different definitions, going back to the late 19th century, the most modern one being free market corporate capitalism less government interference in the markets and less social welfare, but it is a political mindset which has grown into complete psychological control. So, it's right wing?

So, it's right wing? No it is a psychological mindset it doesn't have a wing as such. Which is why they all vote the same way on major neo liberal policy. We have just seen it with Covid and several other psychological policy's.

In fact, it sounds very right wing.

Among others, which no longer exists.

I've always understood neo-liberalism to be right-wing ideology. I'd love to know where you got your definition. Do you have a link?

The yanks call ( what I would call) lefties “ liberals “.

I don't need a link it goes on daily under the nose, a link would be somebody else who has done the watching and thinking.

As you say, it's concerned with less government and less social welfare. If your new usage of the word is common, you should be easily able to find a link to support it. I'd be genuinely interested to see it.

Yes, that's what I've always understood neo-liberalism to be. I'm surprised to find Sheepy describing the so-called Woke agenda as neo-liberalism.

I don't need a link it goes on daily under the nose, a link would be somebody else who has done the watching and thinking. I understood neo liberalism to be (quote) ‘political approach that favours free-market capitalism, deregulation, and reduction in government spending.’ . I think liberalism is more apt (quote) Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality and equality before the law. Liberals espouse various views depending on their understanding of these principles.

I'd be genuinely interested to see it. No it is part of a long list of changing definitions that bring politics under one belief system, the only problem is, making people accept it. You cannot have a one world government without everyone having the same basic belief. Which can be controlled centrally.

You cannot have a one world government without everyone having the same basic belief. Which can be controlled centrally. This is the definition of neo-liberalism, as provided by Google: neo-liberalism a political approach that favors free-market capitalism, deregulation, and reduction in government spending. Why do you keep calling the Woke agenda neo-liberal? At what point did the word's meaning change so as to mean what you seem to think it means?

Or the worlds climate? why do we need a World Economic Forum?
