In other words, an argument from authority.

To say that there has been no change in how the term is used or perceived over the last few year is utterly ridiculous.

You may be in an echo chamber because in politics and academics this rehabilitation is not known about.

Can't disagree with you that there may be a change in how it's been viewed, but to state that the "post rehabilitated neoliberalism" is equally if not more utterly ridiculous. Not to one up you, but please realize that. You're talking a Medium blog post vs how hundreds of millions of people view the term (whether they know what it is or not).
