Every other modern narrative – communism, socialism, even those that were destructive, such as neoliberalism and fascism –

You mean that communism and socialism were not destructive?

Can we get a little perspective please on the \”destructiveness of neo-liberalism\”?

Even if we assume that everything that is happening now is purely the result of such, we\’re losing a year or two\’s worth of growth. We\’re back to 2006 perhaps in our living standards. Trying to compare that to the decades long stagnation brought about by communism, to the gross poverty of actually existing socialism like Cuba, is simply absurd.
