Neoliberalism was founded by Von Mises and others in Vienna in the 1920s. It is a particularly wild version of capitalism. Mises gained power with Reagan and Thatcher, with devastating effects in much of the world. That is the basic reason for anger, resentment and contempt for political institutions that are sweeping much of the world, creating opportunities for ultra-right demagogues such as Trump, Morrison, Johnson, Bolsonaro, Orban, Salvini and others who seek to divert justified anger towards scapegoats, such as immigrants, blacks, Muslims, and so on. An ancient tactic, with serious consequences.
