Everything is "the left" if you're far right

[–] Shake747@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Conversely, everything is far right if you're left

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Nope. Only if you're very far left like the people that think cops being held accountable for murder is communism and Joseph McCarthy was right are very far right.

Degrees exist and matter.

Well no, conversely it would be: Everything is "the right" if you're far left.

You've found the lost city of pedantics

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Actually 🤓 there is no city of pedantics and there never was because pedantics are ostracized everywhere and rightfully so

"New flash asshole, governments aren't birds. Sorry if that's a shock to you."

[–] snekerpimp@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Government just controls the birds

Then why do all of them adopt eagles as a symbol when they wanna look cool? Checkmate atheists.

Leftists are just liberals that are too lazy to vote.

[–] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Libs ain't the left, it's a Venn diagram.

Libs seek to advance freedom against oppressive systems, such as capitalism

The left seeks to advance freedom from capitalism among other oppressive systems

Either way the right wingers don't like them
