@VeikoSpolitis @amazon The focus on Trump as a Russian asset is an attempt to explain away the systemic causes for trumpism, specifically the neoliberal counterrevolution | |

@VeikoSpolitis @amazon @craigunger @rodrikdani Neoliberalism as the root cause of trumpism is not a novel analysis, but the public attention has disproportionately been on Russia, which is convenient for the neoliberal powers to be, and further publishing on Russian hybrid warfare serves to reinforc | |

@VeikoSpolitis @amazon @craigunger @rodrikdani Neoliberalism by definition is an ideology that doesn't box itself in to just economics, so the proper frame to look at it is political economy, and in that sense it's global and hegemonic, so it's the root cause for the current events. 1/2 | |

@VeikoSpolitis @amazon @craigunger @rodrikdani Secondly, if regulation is mentioned, then the topic is still neoliberalism, since deregulation, privatization (like media privatization) and monetarism are explicit parts of the neoliberal agenda. | |
