A neoliberal is a pussy who believes in the rights of all Americans under the constitution like freedom of speech, just as long as you agree with him. If you do not agree with the cowardly neolib, he will insult you safe and secure from behind his computer on the Internet chat room posting boards.
For a fine example, please go to Craigslist, Chicago section and search in the R n R or Rants and Raves section. Plenty of childish examples of the neoliberal cowardly mentality there. http://chicago.craigslist.org/

Get the neoliberal mug.Neo-liberalism, or, New Liberalism, is a thing everyone hates yet has no idea what it actually is. Mostly just used as an insult by leftists online.
Some politically illiterate leftist: EVERYTHING I DON'T LIKE IS NEOLIBERALISM AND EVERYONE TO THE RIGHT OF ME IS A NAZI

Get the Neoliberal mug.Anti-neoliberalism, also called post-neoliberalism, is a set of beliefs that opposite ideological neoliberals which are most commonly found in left-wing politics. These includes: fair-trade, opposition towards globalism, anti-austerity, and opposition towards neoliberal institutions like the IMF, World Bank, EU, and NATO.

Get the Anti-Neoliberalism mug.A cross between communism and socialism. Heavy regulation on everything, a welfare capitalist economy, and a globalist president that imperials the globe. There are also hints of National Socialism(Hitler) and Fascism (Mussolini) in the sense of war constantly against other people and terrorism is used in order to suppress our rights.

Get the neoliberalism mug.Ronald Reagan was a neoliberal- so was George (Senior) Bush. I see people today using it to just mean liberal- when it means the exact opposite.
In the distant past of the early 2000s, the established definition actually paralleled "Neo-conservative" . Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, Alan Greenspan, and Milton Friedman were neoliberals, aka conservatives.
The definition of neoliberal (often shortened to "neolib") has had several definitions which are current undergoing re-invention in our post-truth societies. In that sense, it can mean whatever you want it to mean. But one problem with having so many active and contradictory definitions (of which this site seems to promote more than most others), is that canonical definitions will be thrown out, thus making historical review almost impossible. Already we have much confusion about how the Dixiecrats turned into the Republican Party of today.

"Neoliberals and Neoconservatives weren't opposing ideologies- so it is non-obvious that they went together like chocolate and peanut butter."
or (shortened)
"Just as up is the new down, neolibs are the new libs."

Get the neoliberal mug.A fancy term for "white liberals."
Since it became unpopular to be openly racist, a new ideology was needed where white people could roleplay as saviors who could force their ideology onto the rest of the world. An ideology where everyone is as miserable as the next bearded hipster white liberal, but could buy their way to a feeling of happiness and success.
Neoliberals openly call for wars against Afghanistan, China, etc, while claiming they're bringing "freedom." This is identical to what neo-cons used to say, but this time neoliberals are painting trans / LGBTQ flags onto their bombs, thinking that this makes it better. After all, the USA needs its money to keep propping up the lifestyles of insecure, low-self esteem having, overweight, bearded leftists who mistake politics for having a personality cause they can't fall back on their looks or talent. So neoliberals will continue to support illegal drug wars in Afghanistan.
This is why people are starting to miss Bush. People would rather have a snake in full view like neo-cons, rather than snakes in the grass like warmongers like AOC, who cry for the rights of gays, etc. while driving around in a 100k Tesla paid for her through the CIA's Afghan heroin trade.
After all, neoliberals are all about keeping up their social status as being a "woke" person, but still need money to make themselves feel like they matter, hence their obsession with capitalism and everything that comes with it.

South American communist 1: Hey, look at this shell fragment from an American mortar that killed my baby and took off half my wife's face? What's this rainbow flag on it mean?
South American communist 2: Oh, that's just American neoliberalism.
South American communist 1: What's the difference between them and the Americans here in the 80's?
South American communist 1: The rainbow flag pretty much.
