I've seen a lot of capitalism loving neolibs suddenly embracing the idea what we're currently under isn't REAL capitalism because wealth has gotten too accumulated and as created an anti-competition oligarchy.

Which like, yeah, but yah know someone predicted this would happen.

It's especially funny when those same neoliberals have been basking in glory since 1990 when their system "won" and they thought all they had to do was tinker around the edges. One Washington Consensus president after another, and within a generation, we've entered The Gilded Age 2. You can't claim "Not Real Capitalism," my brother in Christ, this is the globalized hegemony you wanted! Obama's legacy is Trump, you really think we can just turn back the dial on this shit?
