"OK so look, Capitalism is right wing.

Period.

If you are pro-capitalism, you are Right Wing.

There is no pro-capitalist Left. That’s a polite fiction in the US that no one can afford any longer as the ecosystem is actually collapsing around us."

    Stop. Get help. Defining things to make sure your position is the right one and the only correct position is the one that does no harm to anyone and is in no way evil or exploitive. STOP.

    It is not useful, it is not constructive. While you’re lecturing about who has the correct beliefs to have a place at your little left wing table, a billionaire has gotten more wealth and power. Find common ground with people who work, and who believe in working to make the world better for society. It is more important to do something beneficial than to make sure you can’t be logically judged poorly.

    Go help someone. Go work to improve your community. Go find common ground with the people who are doing the same.

      Hey, liberal:

      The fascists deliberately redefine what words mean to their idiot wage slaves as a method of stiffling dissent and controlling narratives.

      The end goal is the ability to slap labels like “communist” on simpering liberals like Biden and Harris, so the brainless base knows they’re free to inflict violence on them and their supporters.

      Fuck off with your insistence that actual leftists play along with it instead of educating people.

      It’s for your good too.

        Lol, this would hit better if A. It didn’t start with some kind of weird name calling rather than any attempt to communicate respectfully. B. It weren’t defending an objectively bad take around defining the completely relative and subjective term of “left” and “right” rather than a word like capitalism and communism and C if the liberal label were even accurate, I am a democratic socialist, it doesn’t matter though, it doesn’t change the validity of any part of this argument, not is it a more important fact about me than my class, the fruits of my labor, and most importantly my ernest desire to do good in my community.
