If the term conflates the policies of a man who threw communists out of helicopters and banned labored unions with the policies of the US democratic party, which is the strongest supporter of labor union in the US, then it is a useless term which, again, was defined by philosophy departments at ivy league schools. It is already meaningless. It's a useful way for people like you to conflate moderates with jackbooted thugs from 3rd world banana republics. It is an intellectually dishonest way to convey your political opinions: just label everyone who disagrees with you as a "neoliberal"
There's the trademark extremist schizoid disorder. Take your meds
Ableism is fascism. Also, that's a fallacious argument at its core and your own standards dictate that is not okay.
Also you, 1 comment above:
The strongest supporter of labor unions in the US....
This made me actually LOL. That's an insanely low bar and only true if you are only picking between the two parties that share power.
