    Pretty much this. Historically, neoliberalism was something you would generally use to describe the economic policies of Reagan, Thatcher, or Pinochet. People now call Biden neoliberal, but it's pretty obvious he is not campaigning on a platform anywhere near these other leaders

    It’s become a buzzword type insult for leftists

    This isn't neoliberalism. Aren't you all just a bunch of libertarians/New Deal Democrats/social democrats/corporatist shills?

    In order:

    No - we do not believe in the delusion that the poor are poor simply because they don't work hard enough. Less seriously, we worship a central banker on this subreddit, how libertarian can we be?

    No - we know that price controls, protectionism, and verging on central planning are not good responses to almost any economic situation, let alone a recession.

    No - though this question is more fair. Neoliberalism and social democracy were often interwoven, particularly at the end of the 20th century. However, while we often share similar goals, social democrats tend to be significantly more skeptical of the merit of the free market on principle than neoliberals tend to be. In the same way that classical liberals might be seen as one step to the right of us, social democrats might be seen as one step to the left.

    Yes.

    This is the only correct answer

    Lotta people describing right wing/conservatives

    Neoliberals arent pro privatization they just are very pro markets and anti nationalization

    Neoliberalis=socially liberal, centrist economically

    Ik american politics is extremely skewed right but in the rest of the world economic right wing/socially liberal is just what we call conservatives

    Merkel chancellor of Germany took in millions of syrian refugees but she’s from the Conservative party

    And how is this different from regular liberals?

    for exemple a neoliberal believes the wall street bailout of 2008 was a good idea, while a liberal would say in the rules of capitalism if you lose you lose
