    I've been thinking about this lately and how perhaps neoliberals basically absorbed fascism post-WW2 and just administer it in a different manner from traditional fascists. I figure I can't have come up with that on my own and have been looking for something to read on the subject.

      Radio War Nerd has a good episode about how Italian Neoliberals and Fascists were quite open, before WW2, that they were very close twin ideologies. Episode 205, if I am not mistaken.

        same happened/ is happening with Bolsonaro and neolibs in Brazil. Bolsonaro had the support of over half the legislative and of pretty much all of the neolibs in the runoff.

          It is almost like Privatisierung wasn't exclusively a neoliberal agenda.
