You don't need a new term for that, they already have "Laissez Faire Capitalists" or even just "Capitalists".
Any form of liberalism that leads to decreased rights and opportunities, including ideology of stripping away protections, is by definition no longer liberalism.
Ah, but it supposedly doesn't lead to decreased rights and opportunities! π
It was really just an excuse for promoting global capitalism, but most liberals sadly bought into it.
You know why the Laissez Faire Capitalism term fell off so much that you might never have even heard of it? Because hardly anybody exists who actually subscribes to that bullshit. Your supposition that "liberals sadly bought into" it is merely your delusion fueled by propaganda.
Ask a political scientist you dummy. You're actually being anti intellectual at this point π
Lmao "anti-intellectual" for correcting you. Okay pal.
this is such a silly point to make
by the same logic, any form of fascism that leads to alienation or othering in the creation of an outgroup against the symbolism of the fasces in unity and collective strength⦠is by definition no longer fascism
so silly π
