IME the far left (once you get to the “China is a perfect communist utopia” part) are as bad as the far right. They’ve got this puritanical fervor on both sides where I’m pretty sure genocide is part of the strategy.
They’re both intolerable and intolerant people.
But the difference is in the parties. The far right controls the entire Republican Party, and the far left are treated like the insane people they are in the Democratic Party.
It literally is a party of insane people doing insanely awful things, or a flawed group of people trying to do the best they can for everyone. And morons like this guy are trying to make them look the same.
I mean, if you imagine left and right more of as a circle that connects, it all makes a lot more sense. The center of the line becomes the top of the circle that gets more extreme until you have fascists and authoritarian communists sitting next to each other, hating each other, but also looking mostly indistinguishable to anyone further up the circle.
Unironic horseshoe-theory argument as if that shit isn’t laughable on its face and gets regularly refuted. Fascism was not and is not opposed by centrist liberals. It’s opposed by leftists.
They don’t look the same at all to the working class, and the fact that you’d even suggest that makes me think you’re not being serious and this is just some Russian troll account.
Imagine being this privileged. I guess you don’t need insulin, are LGBT etc?

If you’re as “far left” that you support dictators and don’t even like democracy then you’re not left in my opinion.

Stupid take
Name calling… thanks that helps…
To the working class they do look the same, crumbs for plebs to keep us fighting and the wealthy keep on doing what they do.

Russiagate was proven false.
Not sure why people keep falling for it.
We are in different bubbles…
Am LGBT, am not a reliable Biden voter. I think I’m pretty privileged- and in a lot of ways my “LGBT status” has been a privilege.
We are all privileged, not sure how trying to out victim someone helps.
Minorities are always targeted.
Working class struggle is the focus to get more peopke to join and not divide us, status quo voting will not help.
Long term vs short term solutions.
