Thank you for your analysis!

I'm not a leftist anymore, I simply don't appreciate the zionism in the DNC (and yes, the GOP too). People are very quick to prescribe labels and polarize if it falls outside their political organization's boundaries!

You're not a leftist... because the right and mild right are bigots?

I'm not a leftist because the left is also full of fascists that provide (un)critical support to any country deemed AES, and I know this because I used to be very much an AES-worshipping tankie myself. I still have some respect for socialists and communists that don't prescribe to AES ideology, but it's still just mostly infighting over which system failed better. At some point I just concluded that communist/socialist/leftist is harmful baggage to carry, that only leads to snap judgements from corpomedia brained folk.

So you went from the left to the right, and now support Empire? I don't see what you mean here

[-] ssm@lemmy.sdf.org -3 points 4 weeks ago

If that's what you got from this, I can't help you. If you think you can't be a leftist without being right wing, or right wing without being leftist, you're too deep in the shit.

What on Earth are you talking about? When did I say being a leftist is being right wing?

[-] ssm@lemmy.sdf.org -2 points 4 weeks ago

I don't know, but you're saying I support "the empire", which sounds like the typical dismissal and grouping by most ideologically entrenched folk I talk to around here. Sorry if I misunderstand, I have my autism diagnosis on hand if that is suitable for coverage.

If you support US hegemony, you support Empire. If you aren't expressing support of US hegemony, that's a good thing.

Oh wow! I'm a thought leader!
