Lmfao, what the fuck do you think neoliberalism is?
And yes, it is pointless voting for the centre left, for exactly that reason - they too are neoliberal (= capitalists = exactly the point I was making in my comment).
You're seriously not making the point you think you're making lol
I'm not making the point you think I was making. I wasn't arguing against you. If it was all Reagan's fault, the center left would have corrected it. But they didn't. They turned neoliberal when they got to power. They are now but weren't before.
That's very simplistic. 19th century capitalism wasn't neoliberalism. The new deal era wasn't neoliberal but socdem. Neoliberalism is the flavor of capitalism introduced by Thatcher/Reagan/... it's not the same as capitalism.
