    Neolibs, sure, but I don’t associate the typical lefty with “corporate rights” lol. Meanwhile most righties I know want the deregulation of most industries in the name of “personal liberties”, but all it does is allow corporations to do whatever they want. Neolibs love unregulated markets though.

      Political jargon is confusing. But I think this case they refer to economical right-wing, who typically support deregulation of market.

      I think calling “modern left” “liberal” is kind of confusing, since most modern left support social freedom and economical control, which is not really “liberal”. But that is the terms we stuck with.
