The neoliberal subreddit is a true wellspring of comedy. Nowhere else on the Internet do you see such an awkward coexistence between incredulous radlibs and actual genuine fascists.

It’s all about having common enemies, imo, plus similar cultural signifiers. They’re both in the “blue tribe” and whatever views someone might have about “political” things like war, it’s just a difference of opinion.
What I mean by “political” is that most people have a certain set of values that they’ll say, “shouldn’t even be political,” and you can generally tell almost everything about a person’s politics by what they put in that category. The neolibs and radlibs place things like LGBT rights in that category, but slaughtering a bunch of foreigners, well, that’s a complicated foreign policy debate where reasonable people can disagree. Plus, I mean, they’re radlibs, so they’re probably gonna see eye-to-eye with neolibs on Ukraine, for example.
