the sudden and devastating shrinking of a writer's self-worth after they submit a new word to the Urban Dictionary and are rejected. May affect male organs if severe.
Old professor Wilhelm submitted a great new word to the Urban Dictionary and all he got was rejection and subsequent neologatrophy. Poor sod gots nothin' but snow peas for testicles, now!

Get the neologatrophy mug.Not to be confused with classical liberalism or theological neoliberalism, these people believe that a free market brings democracy. The classic neoliberal success story is Chile, which under Allende was a socialist democracy. Under Pinochet, the man the neoliberals brought in to replace him, it was a capitalist dictatorship. Famous for fighting with Argentina over uninhabited islands of no strategic importance. Also known as Thatcherists or neoconservatives.
Ultimately, both parties are neoliberal. It just happens the Demos use some lube when they fuck the world.

Get the Neoliberal mug.basically Liberals who hate both reagan and thatcher yet choose to call themselves neoliberals just to piss off both socialists and conservatives thus maintaining quality policy discussions based on academic evidence and consensus among professionals(like scientists, urban planners, economists, doctors etc) instead of bullshit peddled by far-left and far-right. Your "common sense" and historical materialism are not substitutes for empirical evidence.
they mostly believe in the fact that regulated market economies with global free trade, free movement of capital and labor leads to massive reduction in poverty and increase in human welfare and incomes of all groups. some commies think that poverty isn't declining instead the world bank has reduced the poverty line which is again bullshit, you can see poverty rate at different poverty lines here: ourworldindata.org/no-matter-what-global-poverty-line

Person 1: Why are people getting so radical nowadays? everyone thinks they have the whole world figured out and they know more than consensus of professionals who worked their whole life in their respective fields.
Person 2: yeah bro, people are getting their policy takes from BreadTube, Elon Musk, Jordan Peterson, Zizek, Karl Marx and other over-glorified idiots. You should visit r/neoliberal, we only have policy discussions with proper citations of research papers.
Person 1: wow this place is kinda nice, I too love the global poor now.

Get the Neolutum mug.Neoliberalcon is neologism formed from mashing together neocon, the conservative masterminds behind the Project For A New American Century in the 1990s, and neoliberals, the liberal masterminds behind globalism in the 1990s. They started out on different sides, but realized they were on the same side after Donald Trump's populist campaign swept both out of influence.
"The neoliberalcons are really pissed Trump won the election," John said.
"You mean the neocons?" Bob asked.
"And the neoliberals. They're on the same team now."
