lol that’s not what I’m referring to. What they call themselves doesn’t matter, what matters is whether their policies/laws and/or philosophy/ideology align with neoliberal principals.

Words, especially those which a politician or lawmaker uses to market themselves to the public, are not material. They can’t be measured in any meaningful way and they don’t necessarily reflect reality. (You can, however, measure the material indications and effects of those words if you’re inclined to do so, but that’s besides my point.)
