I was. I asked you to elaborate, then you deflected and asked what I thought you meant. I answered honestly, it wasn’t an accusation, it was what you literally asked for. Please respond in good faith.
Actually, this town has more than enough room for the two of us
He/him or they/them, doesn’t matter too much

Wikipedia agrees with me, the others are liberal rags.
What do you consider “defending?” No Leftist I have ever seen likes Putin, Trump, or Netanyahu, which means either you have an interesting idea of what “defending” means or you are yet another “left” anticommunist.
I think you’re yet another “left” anticommunist that hasn’t read a word of theory, yet thinks reading wikipedia makes them an authority on Marxism. Hope I’m wrong!
Has it? It’s the same as it always is, though with the US election I guess the liberal side is getting more scratched.
I’ve run out of ways to say this, so I’ll just reiterate it one more time and be done with it
I understand what you mean, and have since the beginning. I disagree with you on it.
In a geopolitical context, leftism is socialism and rightism is Capitalism.
Elaborate, what is this “tankie” and what do they do that “goes against the tenets of Communism.”
There’s nobody defending Netanyahu, Putin, and Trump, and claiming to be Leftist.
You failed to. It gives an inaccurate view that misleads the user. What matters is what a person actually supports.
Yep, hence why Communism is necessary.
Leftism is revolutionary, rightism is reactionary. Right now, Capitalism is the dominant system being struggled against by Leftists around the globe. During the French Revolution, the proletariat and bourgeoisie both collaborated to overthrow the monarchy, which is why it was left.
Transphobia is sadly common these days, wouldn’t be surprised.
No, it’s getting people aligned on terms so proper organizing can happen. Liberals will never align with anticapitalists, for instance.
You seem confused. The point of it isn’t to give a fully accurate explanation of a person’s views on every topic. It’s to give somebody a general idea.
It doesn’t, though, plus the test itself is highly flawed and biased.
Yep, “left” anticommunists are a known phenomena propped up by the US state department.
Are the “far-right agression” defenders in the room right now? What imaginary enemy have you concocted?
Who do you think are the “left leaders” in America? What are you talking about?
Yes, he calls himself a Democratic Socialist while being a Social Democrat, I’m aware.
Left wing in the modern context refers to anti-Capitalism.
It doesn’t. Someone with a “left” view and a “right” view can cancel each other out, occupying the same space as someone with a “neutral” view. It’s worthless.
Plus, someone can say they are for something, but actually not support it in reality.
You being anticommunist is what I thought you meant. Those aren’t unrelated.
I have been acting in good-faith, you have been beating around the bush this entire time.
Communists, Marxists, Marxist-Leninists, etc. Anyone that actually defends AES and doesn’t repeat US State Department Propaganda about the Global South.
