Neo-Liberalism, Trickle-down economics, Thatcherism or whatever you call it really has more in common with fundamentalist religion than anything else.
"Mainstream economists nowadays might not be particularly good at predicting financial crashes, facilitating general prosperity, or coming up with models for preventing climate change, but when it comes to establishing themselves in positions of intellectual authority, unaffected by their failings, their success is unparalleled. One would have to look at the history of religions to find anything like it.

Elon Musk is a good example of how terrible people become increasingly radicalized into the far right simply because the far right is a community that accepts cruel, terrible people.

It's tempting to say Elon is going "mask off", but I'd wager Elon didn't know who Tommy Robinson was 5 years ago. 1/
