It's the only horseshoe theory I'll actually acknowledge: the further you get towards either end of the political spectrum the more open you are about the necessity of power and even violence to enforce a political agenda.
Of course the difference is we're trying to use that power to uplift everyone and the reactionaries are trying to use it to murder anyone they deem impure
libs still believe in the necessity of power and even violence too they just play mental gymnastic mind games to justify it as civil bc its sanctioned by the state.
I think Disco Elysium portrayed the "neutral/civil" mentality of liberals beautifully and succinctly in this one line describing the MoralIntern:
After the commies and the fascas tag teamed Revachol, foreign nations with moderately deadly artillery came and leveled the city, put all the commies against a neutral wall and turned Revachol into a debt colony / financial buffer zone / whatever the hell they want it to be.
I forgot about that part. Can you really call it speech? If I wanted to impress a lover I would wear something as thin and revealing as the words they speak.
Because the left is the only group that is honest about what exercising power actually means

Never? :bugs-stalin:
Flipping open a history book and turning the pages back 80 years to find that one time a Leftist did more than raise their voice.
