Neoliberalism is the guiding ethos of both the Republican and the Democratic parties since at least the 80s. Austerity, deregulation, gutting worker protections and social services. Every single president since Reagan has been a neoliberal of some form.

This is a fucking bonkers take. Nowhere was Putin mentioned. You people have completely lost your grasp of reality.
Did you see what happened when a bunch of libertarians took over their own town? Nobody wanted to pay for or pick up their garbage and their town got overran by bears.

I mean that stuff wouldn’t emerge for the next couple decades, but you can certainly see where the capitalist vampires saw it and went “damn that looks real efficient, bet if we made a privatized version we’d make more money than god”.
Of course as we know it was only so efficient because of its socialized nature which made such supply chains less prone to disruption as the computational power could be used to centrally monitor supply chains between all sorts of different nationalized industries, that could then be allocated in an agile manor so as to minimize any one industry or population running out of materials or basic needs. It was so efficient materials could even be reallocated mid route. It was a really sophisticated system and could serve as a blueprint for large scale socialized economies.
It’s great, it goes further into how post coup the nascent proto-neolib ghouls went down to examine cybersyn and essentially stole the whole idea behind it which eventually became the model for just in time supply chains at places like amazon and walmart. Oh what could have been.
I don’t care that you have only a flimsy grasp of Marxism at best, or are a bad faith troll, we get those all the time. You’re not even fun just repetitive and boring. I would ban you just for being a smug little shit.
