You could liken the political system of the star wars universe to any "corrupt" regime's political system: from roman empire to middle eastern autocracies. Stop calling everything you don't like neoliberal. The fuck did the galactic republic do, stop ewoks from nationalizing their booby trap industry and make them adhere to free market principles?

Stop using political ideologies as value judgement, even if those said ideologies suck ass

    Every time i see someone call everything neoliberal, it's always a Bernie person who learned about the word 6 days ago

    Edit: and every time i see someone use radlib it's always someone terminally online. I never heard the word in real-life. Ever. "Revisionist" and straight "lib" are usual go to insults, never radlib.

      It might be because radlibs are an online phenomenon?

      When I see the word I just think of psychotic libs on Twitter. I've never seen that flavor of insanity anywhere else, which is why I refuse to use that site.
