Reading about FOSS philosophy, degoogling, becoming against corporations, and now a full-blown woke communist (like Linus Torvalds)

    Why do so many people think left vs right is government vs no government? It’s fucking baffling. You think leftists just love the government? Just… why?? Who told you that? Why do you believe them?

    “So long as the state exists there is no freedom. When there is freedom, there will be no state.”

    So much love for state, here…

    I’ll tell you something that might shock you. I’m pretty much a communist. I also hate the state. Does that confuse you? It shouldn’t!

          The initial answer to first comment stated that right side don’t want more laws vs left side wants more laws Then I thought, it is kinda the other way with my anarchist friends

            In essence, kinda. The extreme left advocates for statelessness (among other things of course), but the extreme right is all for absolutism. You have libertarians and an-caps, but they’re honestly misinformed.

      I’m sorry I assumed Marxism-Leninism instead of libertarian socialism because of the predominant tankie culture here on lemmy.

        Don’t let the tankies steal the term “communism”.

        I even don’t want to give up Marx.

        I never knew what a tankie was until I came to Lemmy… now I see it everywhere. It’s gross…
