And here's the fascist bully boy stormtrooper back! Welcome!
The issue those on the right have is as you quite correctly point out, an inability to even acknowledge or say out loud neoliberalism, let alone Atlas and all of the far right umbrella which is pure fascism and madness. You lot believe National are centre, which is laughable really.
If there is no capacity to even admit that neoliberalism is the underpinning of the last 50 years, then yes, we will be poles apart.
The very system and policies you lot are all trying to entrench and retain are causing the very problems that you all feel threatened by, yet somehow, SOMEHOW no can see that.
The right have won! They're dominant everywhere and we're all fucked as a result!
Yet SOMEHOW, there's a nasty mean ol' Top8, the nasty left. Honestly? It's embarrassingly laughable.
The common intellectual foundations are fundamentally flawed on the right here and it's backed up by incessant privilege, lies and disinformation. And that's just Wiz, let alone Frank.
This piece sums up my views very well, hat tip David Slack.
