Democracy, human rights, civil liberties and due process Neoliberals can be found in many political parties and we are not dogmatic supporters of specific parties. But we tend to find ourselves agreeing more often with parties that espouse liberal values, internationalism and centrist economics, such as the Democrats in the US, Liberal Democrats in the UK, FDP in Germany, Renaissance/MoDem in France, the Liberal Party in Canada, and so on. **Further reading** - I’m a neoliberal. Maybe you are too.

The discussion thread is for casual and off-topic conversation that doesn't merit its own submission. If you've got a good meme, article, or question, please post it outside the DT.

Obviously this is still sort of an experiment, but I figured why not keep trying it? I know the sub is technically open again, but I want to genuinely explore alternatives to Reddit.
Why not try and see if this catches on??
Btw, if you're a NL mod and want to be added here, reach out to me with proof and we'll get you sorted.

Good question, and I hope its not too late lol

I am not entirely sure except keep trying. Boosting comments and posts should help with visibility, at least.

I am excited to see a reddit alternative emerge and would love to see something like r/Neoliberal in the fediverse, too.

I remember when I joined r/Neoliberal on reddit it was a relatively small community (around 16,000 I want to say?) and no where near as big as it is now. Still though, that was much bigger than what we are working with here.

Thanks - we'll keep plugging away! I joined r/neoliberal when it was still pretty small too and it became one of my go-to favourite subs.

I'm really hopeful we get to that point here too. The number of subscribers is still slowly growing - the more we post/upvote/boost/comment, the more subscribers will come in, the more content they'll generate themselves, etc. It'll take time but I'm hopeful.
