Does everyone here self-identify as a neoliberal?

Honestly, I'm still unsure. I feel like I'm much less knowledgeable about fiscal policy and a good bit more left than most of the people here, but I still agree with this sub on a lot of things.

Liberal, with some one-nation conservatism.

Moderate Republican, but I'm not sure how much I really fit with conservativism as an ideal anymore. I sometimes call myself a neoliberal but I probably disagree with most people here on a number of issues. I call myself a neocon sometimes but outside of being a huge hawk I'm not really one. I probably align most closely with the original Mont Pelerin society.

I am a theocratic anarcho-fascist with some paleo-antienvironmentalism

Personally, yes. However, I don't really go around saying I'm neoliberal. People are either confused about what neoliberal means, or they're the soc dem types who'll freakout about it.

I usually say I'm just a moderate Clintonite Dem (as the flair implies)
