  The left right thing sometimes feel more like a circle and if center was at the top of the circle then tankies and the alt-right would be at the bottom pretty to close to one another. They both want to own the people that are closer to center, they both have a love affair with Russia, they both deny genocides, they both believe in authoritarianism…

    Yup, horseshoe theory. At a certain point, it’s hard to tell authoritarians apart.

  Left wing as in socially and econimically. Not sure what you mean by right wing.

  They’re communists, are very trans friendly, and deny genocide.

    they’re communists

    No they’re not. They’re damaging to socialist causes if anything.

  Do you have any links to prove this right leaning behavior?

    No, because I filtered the entire instance after the 4th “OwN duh LiBs” post.

      They consider liberals too right wing, that’s why they want to own them iirc

        This is correct. They’re way too the left of US liberals and are generally sick of the domination US liberals have in US politics. (The same can be said of the UK.)

        FWIW i’m mostly with them on this. I’m an anarchist and also far left, though i didn’t join their instance when i came to lemmy (obviously).

      Well can you at least explain what was right wing about what you saw?

        Bros unironically don’t think liberals are right wing. What do you think they’ll have to say? Right wing is when you shout “Death to Israel?”

  Are you kidding? They unironically are fans of Stalin and other left wing ideologues. I have never seen a hexbear user who was anything but left wing.
