They still want to change the world, just not how Stalin was doing it.
Firstly, why connect the term NECON with anything Putin at all?
IMO, it is a more basic term unassociated with actual world leaders. Warmongers, monger, political schemers scheme. The MIC SELLS weapons. Politicians can be and are influenced by it every minute of the day whether it is for future enrichment later or potential political influence today.
The neocons were Jewish Democrats who declared as “conservative republicans” in the last half of the 20th Century.
Neocon: Somebody who agrees with John McCain and Lindsey Graham that the debtor-nation US should borrow money from China to spend on pointless wars against Russia.
Ex-communist warmonger who voted for Reagan in the 80’s and Obama and Biden now.
A Bush.
How come Bob Denver aged but Bill Kristol never does?
Finally somebody got it right.
In short, a "neo-con" is a duplicitous, un-American @sshole.
This, and someone, Democrat or Republican, who would vote for the likes of McCain and Graham.
This is real easy. They espouse conservative values but believe in none. They speak them to get elected but vote for no conservative positions once elected. They are military-indutrial advocates who pretend to be conservatives to fool the stooges to get them to vote for them but are only for forever war using the blood of conservative patriot children and US Treasure to further their agenda. They HATE real conservatives, and use them as rubes to further their agenda.
Old school democrats that came onboard during and after the Reagan Admin., you know the big tent types. They are still warmongering democrats that wear a little ‘r’ jersey. They are still saddled with many of their leftist traits like lying at the drop of a hat (for one). Go to any Uke/Russia war thread and they are the ones that demand war at any cost, and like Zelensky they demand the use of nukes on Russia. Just like Hillary/Biden/WEF/Soros etc.., they have a natural hate for Russia. They have no reverse gear. They all speak with one tongue. They are a miserable minority opinion with really fat mouths who think they are legion. They are the most ignorant to world events that I have ever run across. Their Grand Parents were democrats. Their parents were democrats. They are democrats. I hope that helps narrow it down a little.
Neocon: Somebody who doesn’t care that American towns are becoming tent cities for homeless, but loses sleep over whether Russia or Zelensky controls a couple of small provinces in Eastern Ukraine that most Americans couldnt locate on a map and will never visit
In the 1960s and 1970s, neoconservatives or neocons were people who had been liberals or on the left who were critical of the effects of Lyndon Johnson's Great Society programs and the New Left. They were concerned with domestic, rather than foreign policy.
In the 1980s, neocon came to mean something like Cold Warrior, someone who supported Ronald Reagan's policy of taking a hardline with the Soviets. Some of the neocons actually thought that Reagan was too soft on the USSR.
By the early '90s the Cold War was over and Bill Clinton was making "moderate" New Democrat noises. Some of the original neocons had earlier rejoined the Democrats or joined them now. Others became Republicans. It was unclear at that point what would become of neoconservatism.
By the end of the decade neoconservatism became associated with the Project for a New American Century, and the dream of a powerful America democratizing the world. Neoconservatism wasn't associated with domestic policy anymore as it had been in the beginning.
In the Bush-Cheney years, neocons were riding high, but when their dreams didn't come true, they were disgraced. Today's neocons are pushing the powerful America "democratizing" the world dream again. This time against Russia. Neocon seems to mean interventionist or war hawk.
Generally speaking, they are anti-Trump or NeverTrump. Some may qualify as globalist. Others are too focused on American power to be wholeheartedly globalist, but they are closer to Biden than to Trump.
Additional definition:
They want to make the world safe for:
—Perverts
—Kleptocrats
and they call it “democracy”.
Neocon: somebody who is brasses with the integrity of Ukraines border far more than the defense of America’s borders
Neocon: Reincarnated Roman Senators at time of Julius Caesar.
That’s my take.
What’s a neocon? Easy:"An imperialist interventionist who is obsessed with what’s happening in foreign lands far more than what’s happening in America.

For extra credit, review the related term Zeeper.
Excellent. You’ve defined the term neocon el perfecto.
