Liberals already make it very clear that they aren't left wing, do you think barely-regulated capitalism is a left wing position? Do you think constant warmongering is a left wing position? They're garbage at actually doing anything concrete besides spending money on weapons.

Sounds like you like cheering for blue team though.

Only hexbears know this. Lol. If you ask any righty on the street “are you liberal” they’ll say “hell no I ain’t no commie democrat. “

And when most people say “own the lib” it’s usually meant to mean lefties.

So use whatever words you like, but successful communication is more important than proper vocabulary.

Back to those communication skills.

[-] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

I tend to communicate with direct action, rather than trying to sway people materially aligned against me with words.

It's one thing to say you support things and vote, it's another to actually show up to organize and fight for those things.

I'm in a communist party, I do local organizing, get people out on picket lines, run food distributions.

I do other stuff that I would not post about online as well.

You sound like the other guy. Alt account I’m guessing?

[-] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

nope, just another random user, we have a lot of overlap in politics though as you can tell

[-] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

So tell me something that someone else has done that you didn’t do but maybe would give me an idea of the kind of things you might have done but certainly aren’t admitting to…

I’m guessing you’re the type to encourage the releasing of bears in a libertarian camp?

[-] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

That's pretty much what's been happening since federation.

but also yes lmao

Well, I guess I can get behind that. Party on.
