No? Neoliberalism and austerity are more influential than any Marxist party, and getting more so every election.
How has the Nordics been more neoliberal? They still tax billionaires. They enjoy high standard of living and little wealth inequality. These are the balance that neither the US nor USSR could achieve.
Finland recently defeated the far right in local elections. Sweden’s far right in coalition government lost support.
Mate, you’re literally describing what I was talking about.
Which contradict your initial claims that Nordics are becoming more right.
Or is the non-sequitur response your tacit admission that there aren’t any global rules to follow?
Learn what a non-sequitor is before throwing the term around. I don’t want to have to ask a third time for you to actually learn the basics about things before talking about them.
You claimed that throughout history, there has been international laws and standards. I asked you what they are and gave me a non-response to a previous statement that does not have to do with what I asked or my point. Just because a word is too big for you, doesn’t mean you can make accusations on a mirror. You did not even address when i asked you as to how the Nordics benefit from American imperialism when you said they do.
Your last point is precisely the consequence of the lack of legally-binding rules on international level.
Oh, so you acknowledge now that western countries can impose their will on the global South? I thought you said that their “lack of jurisdiction” meant they weren’t allowed to? Are you now saying western countries can don’t actually have to follow the rules and can just do it anyway? Because if so, I will only be able to conclude that you were being deliberately dishonest when you said otherwise.
When it is Saudi Arabia and Gulf states violating human rights, you brushed it aside as whataboutism. But when it is specifically about an entity you hate that is just as guilty, you give it a pass. That is called double standards.
To go back to the point you are trying to derail, these countries act with impunity because they know they could not be held accountable. When it comes to trade, no country has jurisdiction on another on how to treat and pay their workers even if the more developed countries want to tell poorer nations to do so. More often, governments in developing countries would cite sovereignty as thought terminating response to criticisms of human rights violations by the international community. That is why the Nordics, with very little to no colonialist past compared to major Western European countries, have no power to tell the global south how to treat their workers. Because the nation state is given supremacy over international rules, which is why in practice there are no rules. The fact that there are none is why you can’t cite any legally binding international laws when I asked you upon initially insisting there are. So, the accusations of social democratic countries exploiting the global south do not make sense given the current international paradigm. Because social democratic countries have no power and right.
I see we’re breaking out the big book of meaningless redditor buzzwords.

“Neoliberalism is when no tax billionaires”
They enjoy high standard of living and little wealth inequality.
And both metrics are moving in the wrong direction.
These are the balance that neither the US nor USSR could achieve

Show your working.
Which contradict your initial claims that Nordics are becoming more right.
No… They literally support it.
You claimed that throughout history, there has been international laws and standards
No, that was you.
I asked you what they are and gave me a non-response to a previous statement that does not have to do with what I asked or my point.
No, I gave you an answer that you didn’t like, so you are now having to childishly pretend I didn’t.
Just because a word is too big for you, doesn’t mean you can make accusations on a mirror.
You should go back to Reddit, you’ll be happier there.
You did not even address when i asked you as to how the Nordics benefit from American imperialism when you said they do.
I literally did actually. So, given that you’re now electing to not read what I said and then pretend I didn’t say it, I’m not going to read anything more you say until you go back and address what I factually did say
I’ll also point out that it really is damning of the viability of your position that you have to resort to deliberate and obvious dishonesty to defend it. What even is the point of holding a position that you yourself don’t think is seriously defendable?
Are you 12? Otherwise you’re way too old to be using five dollar phrases you don’t know the meaning of after you’ve prattled off on a bunch of shit you clearly don’t have even a YouTube infographics-level understanding of.
Your arguments literally were addressed, to the point that you had to put your fingers in your ears and go “lalala I can’t here you” to avoid admitting as much.
You should also probably learn what cognitive dissonance is before accuse every one of having it.
Lol. Is that really the best you could come up with as a deflection? You might as well have gone with “U mad?” if you were going to be that unoriginal.
Looks like you are having cognitive dissonance.

It never gets old when someone’s having cognitive dissonance.
