Lunatic Thatcherite ideology
Perhaps more accurately, privatising everything is justified by a Friedmanite ideology?
Or perhaps more accurately again, Thatcher and Friedman et al were just dominoes lined up by Mont Pelerin Society scum.
Never stops blowing my mind how those dicks basically defined the fluid we swim in. Fucking conformists everywhere.

In the U.K. it felt to me like an Overton Window shift, bolstered by the myths that grew up around Thatcher after the Falklands war and ringfenced by the rabid Tory press that still worships her. If General Galtieri hadn't rescued her from a likely one-term premiership, who knows.
