I think my wording just fell flat then. I’m not saying that they are self-aware of their own delusion, but that they are delusional due to commodity fetishism, and make the result of that delusion the center of their ideology. That is a step beyond garden-variety liberalism; it’s a religion constructed around commodity fetishistic ideology.

They don’t say “we are deluded about commodities and so should you,” they instead say “we believe the Free Market is a conduit for God’s providence” and use that to justify poverty of the masses and wealth for the ruling class. (After all, if the Free Market is divine, then wealth demonstrates God’s approval.)
