I have a friend like this and damn is he frustrating to talk politics with. He is convinced that his politics are cutting edge and transcend left/right but he mainly gets his news from msnbc. Never read any theory and seems to have no real interest in leftism. Likes to talk about "personal liberation" in some kind of vaguely spiritual sense. Trust fund kid who's never had to worry about money. Went to a fancy arts college. Feel like there are a lot of people out there like this.
Literally should be every socialists default position imo, but noooooo we gotta have a bunch of nonconformist dipshits who thinks its radical to buy a Comrade Che Guevara shirt from Hot Topic, commodify socialism into culture war bullshit, eat hotchip, and lie.
I mean I would argue that the default socialist position should be explicit and enthusiastic support of actual existing socialists states, but yeah I'd take that as the default for now considering the alternative of "CIA bad unless it's about socialist states."
I do mean socialist in the broad sense of the word from social democrats to whatever kind of ultra or anarchist tendency is the left-most prior to becoming post-left cranks
