Buddy to be honest I’m having difficulty keeping track of what you’re trying to say anywhere.
I don’t think you’ve understood any of my comments or have attempted to even read the article yet.
But I’m not a interested in an argument with someone who doesn’t even know what they’re trying to argue
So I should listen to the authors…
“It probably comes as a result, to some degree, of a period of globalization and deregulation, of neoliberalism in the 1990s and even earlier developments that have changed party systems—in a lot of countries—in the post-war period,” she says.
Just not the parts you disagree with?
I’m just confused here, because me and the author is saying the same thing…
I’m just blunt, and they’re seemingly hesitant to say what their study concluded with.
And you’re saying it’s not neoliberalism, and to listen to the authors…
Who blame neoliberalism?
It’s not mathing
Neoliberalism hasn’t been a uniquely American epidemic, in large parts to their foreign policy shoving it down 3rd world countries throats.
But regardless of country:
will blame corporations and economic leaders
Who else do you think we should blame for economic inequality?
These leaders do so by finding different targets to blame for the inequality. Left-wing, populist backsliders, for example, will blame corporations and economic leaders. Right-wing, ethno-nationalist backsliders might nurture grievances by blaming outsiders or immigrants.
The difference is one of those groups is using facts and logic to correctly identify the problem…
Like, I couldn’t get over the cognitive dissonance of the author that those two were equally bad.
Who the fuck else should we blame beside corporations and economic leaders for economic inequality?
You want me to go yell at the tooth fairy that poor kids get less under their pillow?
Ideally they would have gotten into campaign finance deregulation allowing the wealthy to buy both parties…
“It probably comes as a result, to some degree, of a period of globalization and deregulation, of neoliberalism in the 1990s and even earlier developments that have changed party systems—in a lot of countries—in the post-war period,” she says.
But I guess that’s close enough. It’s like they knew the answer but were too scared to say it
Exactly my point…
You’re accusing me of “putting words in your mouth” when I clearly haven’t done so.
Ironically enough, in this same thread, you acknowledge that you did exactly that because you didn’t understand my initial comment.
Like, I genuinely would like to explain this to you…
It’s just not going to work. It looks like multiple other people are trying to help you now, so I’m going to let them give it a shot
