Who are the normies? Neoliberals?

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Normie

Neoliberal [ism]  - An ideology that adheres to the liberalized flows of labor/capital/raw materials across nations states so as to achieve the maximization of profits. It's "success" is measured by this thing called "GDP".  GDP = gross domestic product.  The stuff it measures is stupid since MIC spending is a plus sign while a bunch of externialities like pollution never, never get a minus sign. Reagan,Thatcher,Blair,Bill Clinton, the EU, US "establishment", are all evil, nice festering fomites of this mind virus.

I agree with Rags: the neoliberal philosophy is now totally, as compared to partially, rancid.  None of the neoliberal concepts were promulgated for the betterment of anyone other than those actually pitching the ideas.  That they have had the economic clout and the balls-on patience to push them regardless of the situation speaks highly of their perspicacity, and badly about their humanity.  Now those ideas are asked to solve problems they actually caused, and the chickens are flying home in droves.
