I agree, too broad. Good insight. Most people can’t even conceptualize neoliberal capitalism. Change the language, make it about personal issues. Talking dialectical materialism just glazes people’s eyes.
Well also you immediately lose anyone who isnt an already-Jacobin-reading “socialist” so that’s kind of not ideal.
As an actual neoliberal capitalist, I stop taking anyone seriously the moment they force “neoliberal” into shit that isn’t remotely in an actual neoliberal’s lexicon.
Like, even the most shitty, caricature-style neoliberals are into places like the Ivy League existing. They are all famously nonprofit.
It’s just such a lazy, irresponsible thing for an editor to allow through and an interviewer to not challenge. Fight against real shit.
I see myself as aligned with the general direction of the Jacobin on a lot of things - that’s why I read the articles every time even if I’m constantly calling it a rag. It’s a storied name and should produce better content.
