"eoconservatives are not ringing the bell for Orban’s Hungary, France’s Marine Le Pen, or any of Europe’s populists. Perhaps what a British film critic has to say about American politics doesn’t matter, but it’s a good example of just how prevalent the use of the word “neocon” has become for anybody the center-Left or Left finds objectionable. That an editor wouldn’t think twice about letting the descriptor into the paper’s pages suggests both how accepted that practice has become and why some push-back is called for."
