not my left.

spurious propaganda, fails as satire here. does that get a laugh to those under the mcarthian redscare hangover? or just bolster the binary paradigm that's used to hoodwink us all, divided and conquered?

like everything else on the "left" there is a spectrum of leftism as well.

;)

"the left", "the right", as if they are homogeneous singular things, within which all parts are in perfect conjunction.

i continue to strive for an optimally elucidating 3rd dimension to gram up the political graphs, which help lift those out of linear conceptions, or goodness forbid, mere binary characterizations/conceptions.

along the 3rd (and more) dimension(s), there will be even greater diversity of perspectives/opinions/principles/ideas made clearer to see, ... but even with a political compass graph, there's aught be sufficient clue for many in that, that these cartoon generalizations are tools of the tyrant to divide us, to rule us.

Yes but this is the Internet, we only talk about the extremes here…

gotta be careful about falling into echo chambers and narrow reality tunnels and algorithmic traps. the internet's ample diverse to find places to explore the nuance. no need to let yourself get trolled into the click-bait tabloid sensationalist hyperbolic polarizing absolutists.

;]

curious. disabling notifications seems ineffective against mentions.

anyhoo, just came here to say

i reckon a better way to say what the original image nearish attempts say, would be like when Dave Lister meets his past self and exhasperatedly says

Stop calling everything crypto-fascist. You make me sound like such a gimboid.

XD

but, idk if that translates well across the cultural divide. especially to usa that seems to be in its own special orwellian hole that's really tricky to communicate with. especially for stultophobes. ... which reminds me...

and ok, i'll bite and lend more verbiage to try help land the help to not look "obvliviously echo-chambered in willful ignorance" already on offer...

Well I speak to those things that I see as the largest threats, communism is one of them,

which kind of communism?

all of it?

even forms of anarcho-communism?

:3

or just the authoritarian tyranical centralised dominator sorts that emerge in the drift of the "more equal"'s hubris when there's an absence in emphasis on individual freedom and sovereignty to balance, and make meaningful, the promise of sorting everybody out.

i say the problem is not the communism aspect of what many in the mcarthian redscare hangover think communism means, as much the authoritarianism/totalitarianism/centralisation. can have forms of things called communism without that. same as libertarians on the economic right argue for theirs... except their problem's not a mere ideological/psychelogical(arrogance(beingmoreequal)) drift to curtail, it's an intrinsic hardwired fundamental of their political-philosophy, mechanistic even, in it taking money to make money, wealth accumulates, money is power, power corrupts, monopolies inevitably arise, corruption is absolute.

so i'd rather neither authoritarians on the left, nor authoritarians on the right, nor the ones in between, and each and all of them will play us off each other distracting us with "the left" and "the right" as they ply our priorities against each other, taking two freedoms not cared about on one side to give them one freedom, then playing those lost freedoms against the other side, offering one back, while taking two they dont care about, and vice-versa, sending us forever taking tyrannywards. i look forward to the day the ayn rands and emma goldmans of the world unite freedomwards, rather than getting suckered into uniting with the stalins and pinnochaets respectively, getting divided and conquered and sent as unwitting traitors to die for causes against their interests, lost in the terror, oblivious, thinking they're doing the right thing against the monstrous left which is all authoritarian, or the monstrous right which is all authoritarian, whichever lie they got sold on, to hide freedom/liberty/emancipation. ... though then the box tightens in whichever authoritarian side wins out, and then they create a fake left (or fake right), that's really just the same ploy carried out, but too late in the game, still only speaking in terms that are binary (or linear ~ if putting on a show of intellectualism for the well lobotomized and psyop'ed), still only speaking in terms of left and right, able to play that against the different audiences, hiding the free and not-free. certainly would rather neither, especially not falling for the cartoons of control on corporate media.

BLM ignores the fact that 97% of blacks killed are killed by blacks,

idk the extent of validity of that figure or for where/when that's supposed to apply (and i'll leave aside my "never met a #000000 human yet" bit, and the rest of the pedantic satirical propaganda/linguistic/psyop unpickings), but i will ask [even though risking questions being ignored ((benefit of the doubt) as rhetorical, like before (rather than unconscious ignorant or willful ignorant or rude/arrogant/condescending or whatever other less pleasant assumption easily jumped to))]:

Why do you think that is?

What list of causative factors can you include in your consideration?
