A specific form of Liberal Campism centered on defense of the neoliberal order—the post-1980s consensus of deregulation, privatization, free trade, austerity, and market fundamentalism. Neoliberal Campism describes those who align not just with Western powers but specifically with the economic architecture those powers have built: the WTO, IMF, World Bank, free trade agreements, structural adjustment programs, and the global regime of capital mobility. They defend neoliberalism not as one economic policy among others but as the natural, inevitable, and only reasonable way to organize economies—and they defend the institutions that enforce it against any challenge, whether from the left (protectionism) or the right (nationalism). Neoliberal Campism is the camp of the Davos set, the economics departments, the policy consensus that presents itself as beyond ideology.
Example: "He'd criticize any policy that interfered with 'free markets'—except when Western powers imposed 'free trade' by force, which was always 'helping them develop.' Pure Neoliberal Campism: the market is sacred, and the West is its prophet."

Get the Neoliberal Campism mug.The established, institutionalized set of beliefs that define mainstream neoliberal thought—the often-unexamined assumptions about markets, competition, privatization, deregulation, and individualism that have dominated policy since the 1980s. Neoliberal orthodoxy includes specific commitments: that markets allocate resources more efficiently than states, that competition drives innovation and quality, that privatization improves services, that deregulation frees entrepreneurship, that individualism should trump collective provision, that growth solves all problems, and that there is no alternative to market-based organization. Like all orthodoxies, it provides a framework for policy thinking, but it functions as ideology—making market-based arrangements seem natural and inevitable, obscuring their failures and harms, and delegitimizing alternatives. Neoliberal orthodoxy determines what policies are considered "reasonable," what economic arrangements are "realistic," and who counts as a "serious" policy thinker versus a naive idealist.
Example: "She suggested that maybe some services are better provided publicly—and was dismissed as wanting to 'return to communism.' Neoliberal orthodoxy doesn't allow questioning of privatization; it's treated as obviously superior rather than contestable."

NeoBlacks are different from traditional Blacks as they are usually criminals, self-proclaimed victims, disrespectful, ghetto, guiltless and shameless. Politically, they are Democrats and as such, the majority are lifelong welfare recipients.

Get the NeoBlack mug.A term that originally means a type of economic policy used in most countries today, balancing free-market capitalism with minor elements of socialism. Unfortunately, the term has been weaponized by some online users as a verbal attack against any person that disagrees with them, especially in a political context. In other words, it has basically become a euphemism for the "f-bomb" in both online and real life politcal forums.
"Can't you believe Candidate X? He wants to enact a policy that I personally don't like. The neoliberals are at it again!"
