        Yes! Finally, somebody says it! The people who want to end the exploitation of the working class carried out by the bourgeoisie are really basically the same as the people who want to maintain that system of exploitation! After all, they both call each other bad people, both think that they are correct, and both resort to violence to settle it! I've been working on an extension of horseshoe theory called "Polarized Principles are Balanced", or PPB; link to a short introduction.

          I think my thinking is distorted by left wing ideology, and recognising that is important, even if it's based

            I mean, that’s a strange take because the left has historically been on the side of the powerless

              I mean I consider the actions of one group better than another group doing the same action because of their political leaning, not just based on the action. I think this is ok but it's important to check yourself sometimes because you can end up defending some awful shit if you're not careful, see libs and Ukraine etc.

        Everything in moderation, except for the phrase "everything in moderation" right?
