Neoliberalism is not what I described at all. At least, not the currently accepted understanding of the term.
Communism:
A theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members.
A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people.
.
From Stanford, about neoliberalism:
Stanford is a renowned university. Like all successful universities worldwide, they make money. I copied some of the definition, since it's multifaceted and long. But, the general concept is there for both terms. The fact still remains, this is a meme and not a definition of one governing system or another. The source you linked is a good one, though. Last time I sourced it, I got banned from a subreddit haha
