    Progressive/conservative/reactionary is a common and useful framing for leftists. This is like saying communism isn't leftist because leftism "actually" refers to a faction of liberals in the French Revolution.

      Idk I only ever see it used by shitlibs but that's me. If you're going to include reactionary you should probably have revolutionary in there too. That one's harder to fuck up.

        Revolutionary isn't a political perspective, it's a tactic. You can be a reactionary revolutionary.
