wow, you just equated the left and neoliberal.
Teleport back to my university self and I'm utterly confused. Actually, my present self is utterly confused.
Well, there's an alliance between the left and the neoliberals isn't there?
And the neoliberals, while not as radical as the left on cultural issues, definitely see the cultural concerns as parochial and beneath them, not fitting for a person of their upbringing and stature. The dysfunction stems from their utter inability to communicate about these issues in a way that makes sense to regular people.

I wasn't aware neoliberals existed, let alone having an alliance with anyone.
(its a poltergheist term for "anything I dislike")

Wouldn't the Obama and Hilary Clinton types (WEF Davos peeps) be classified as Neoliberal?
reply
Absolutely not.
I mean, you can use terms to mean whatever you like, and this quickly gets to the nonsense of using it: It has no meaning.
