It's funny to see people that have swallowed anti communist peograganda hook line and sinker flounder in here trying to discredit the far left.
Undecided voters are the stupidest people on the face of the Earth.
Maybe I’m the centrist in this scenario, but isn’t that just normal left? I’d expect far left to be like “we are going to exterminate all the rich then give their stuff to everyone else”

i just try my best to think logically and realistically idc abt left or right opinions
Thinking logically and realistically, without checking if left or right, inevitably leads to a leftist slant. There's nothing logical or realistic about right wing thought, that's why they usually suppress the scientific community and educational systems.
why do people say these thing when they know its not true
USA: we don't have a left. Democrats are at best center.
You don't have a right either though, at least not a right on the democratic spectrum.
All you've got are "unacceptable" and "fascism".
They are more right than russian right-wing politicians. Even in USSR second opposition party was right-wing Liberal-Democratic Party of Soviet Union.
Nowadays the right-left-continuum is already broken inside a single political region, I am pretty sure getting the USSR into the boat doesn't make it easier.
And by the way, who was the "second opposition party" in the One-Party-System of the Soviet Union?
Well, it's hard to tell liberals and conservatives apart, mostly because liberalism isn't left wing, but actually slightly right from centre, and both liberalism and conservativism share some similarities.
This is what McCarthyism did. It's the great goal post mover.
Liberalism is solidly right of center, its Social Democracy that is slightly right of center. Conservativism is just fascism.
Conservatives:
Liberals: "no nazis or bigots. We want fair pay and basic human rights"
Wow, it's so hard to see the difference.
CPAC organizers did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
How does that change anything? In the past they were willing to eject these people, but not this time.
It doesn’t. I just found it funny they expected a comment. The news not calling this fascism is why it’s going to get worse.
I doubt they actually expected a comment. Reaching out for a comment is just part of what you do as a journalist.
I used to think that the type of hatred displayed by the filth guy was a small backwards group ina larger whole, but I'm not seeing anyone else in the larger whole, who might be less ridiculous, saying anything about the fridges. It makes them all appear the same.
This is a basic example of issues caused by not policing extremist views within your own group, or a group being too big and not representing the majority of people's views.
It says something, that securing people's basic needs is considered "far" left.
The joke is this is a meme made by the far left.
In reality they overspend till the government is soooo weak that their little friends can steal and rob in each and every part of the local government, central government ans government companies.
At least that's how it goes in every single country in south America
Viva noboa Milei and bukele! Fck trump
Vote left in developed countries
Vote right in undeveloped countries
Unfortunately this is the way.
Imagine thinking this is how normal people think 🤣
Why would I care about what so-called normal people think? Most of them are boring and care about football far more than about the direction their country is going in.

The left:
The right: we’re gonna do genocide
The right:
Uh, what? Can you provide any evidence of this whatsoever? Like, a shred perhaps?
The left:
You’re racist!
The left: we're gonna spy on everyone to make sure you're fine and doing well!
The right: dude nobody's looking who cares
Centrists: are either of you sure and aware of your statements?
Good lord... the comments on here proves that lemmy.world is flooded with politically incompetent libs that couldn't tell the difference between left and right if their lives depended on it.
If you believe that there is such a thing as an actual "left" in formal political establishments, this means you.
Centrist here. I don't think the point of horseshoe theory is that the far-left and far-right are the same. The point is simply that they have similarities. Like both wanting to use violence to achieve their aims.
But isn't being forced to pay taxes a form of extermination?!
This forum is exactly like its reddit counterpart: hot garbage
