The pendulum has already swung back somewhat: Since the '00s, the ruling party has been quietly ramping up the social safety net (various subsidy programs for the low-income), implemented universal healthcare to an extent (keeping health insurance costs low), and focused a lot on aiding older unemployed citizens (wage subsidies, retraining, upgrading). Government departments focus more on "customer service" and have a "no wrong door" policy.
It's been a gradual moderation since the '90s and before, when things were more uptight and anti-welfare-state. I remember the "OB markers", stuff that was out-of-bounds for public discussion - much of those have been eroded by blogs, forums & social media. So, not Marxism, just a shift away from pure capitalism and authoritarianism.
