    Every time they treat left and lib like they're the same thing I die a little inside.

    I think one of the biggest challenges facing the left is that people think left=dems when in reality the dems are just capitalists with a prettier dress.

      I mean, do you generally care to distinguish between literal nazis and "moderate republicans" when you talk about right-wingers? I'm sure they are disgruntled when you don't understand which particular sort of reactionary they are.

        so we sometimes fail to distinguish between right-wing and far-right, but they almost always fail to distinguish far-left, left, and center-right

        Yeah, I've seen people say "I'm not a white supremacist, I'm a white nationalist!" on rw forums

        I mean moderate republicans are very cool with actual nazis. You don't see democrats shmoozing with actual communists/socialists or, god forbid, anarchists but you see all parts of the right wing do so with fascists and fascist states lol

        Not really a fair comparison.
