    Mate, I am on the UK left. There’s ridiculous factionalism.

              Oh wow. A tory on an anti-corporate platform.

              Remember this?

                How does “left wing, but not communist” mean Tory to you? I’ve been demonstrating for socialism probably before you were born.

                  There are three options here, leftist which is anarchist or communist, but the anarchists don’t vote so they’re functionally irrelevant. The other options are neoliberal or tory. There aren’t any others, pretending there are is absolute nonsense and your unwillingness to just speak straight instead of in riddles makes you sus from the outset.

                    There’s a lot of room on the left between communism and neoliberalism. Have you heard of non-communist socialism (e.g. Titoist market socialism)?
