Very relevant for neoliberalism

For some reason, this sub is very invested in culture war trends that are irrelevant to neoliberalism, and is not afraid of exiling allies. Dogpiling an eminent biologist for his statements on biological sex seems antithetical to neoliberalism, if it has any relevance at all.

Human rights are fundamental to liberalism, and the same bad arguments and misinformation that Dawkins pushes are being used to take away people's rights.
