    A lot of that, I think, is because they share hate for western governments. Enemy of my enemy, I guess?

      I’m not sure who “they” is in your comment?

      My understanding is that socialists, anarchists, and others that might be considered “the left”, tend to love democracy. They love it so much they want to see it spread from government into the workplace. Governments that operate according to democratic republican* principals are not the enemy of the left - they’re part of it.

      *note the lower case letters - not talking about political parties, but representative democracy as a philosophy
