    I think you’re confusing the left with far left idealists. “Right wing” and “left wing” are symbolic terms that once represented the right and left sides of the French National Assembly during the French Revolution.

    So the “left” is referencing democrats/liberals, not anti-capitalists.

    You might want to either co-opt a different term, or better yet- come up with something new.

      No matter how much you liberals whine, you’re not left wing. The left starts are the abolition of capitalism, as equality and equity cannot exist under capitalism.

      As far as the origin of the term… That’s not how language works. It evolves over time. The liberals haven’t been included in the left since you people appointed Hitler after instigating more than a decade of institutional violence against communists.

      You’re not left wing, you’re the exclusive reason fascists have ever gained power.

            Are you running an LLM with basically no tokens?

            I have no fucking idea what that even means, but… HOLY FUCKING SHIT! In one paragraph. You acknowledge that history can change the meaning of a term, and in another, you blatantly accuse modern day liberals of being fascist because of shit that happened in the 1930’s?

            That is some Olympic-level mental gymnastics! And god dammed hilarious!

            You’re definitely trolling. There’s no doubt.
