Good thing being left of center is far more nuanced than communism, then.

Also, not going to get into a debate about whether certain people should be considered people or whatever you’re baiting, sounds like fascism to me.

I disagree that left of center is more nuanced than communism. Most communists historically reject all forms of sectarianism, although we can fall into it anyway for a lot of reasons. I have love and admiration for many progressive liberals, and leftists that are not communists (commies are often not the most left faction, leninists tend to be more center left.) When you get to this level of analysis though, left right and center stop being useful and you have to dig into actual issues and political action.

But many progressive liberals are wrongheaded or idealist and dualist, which is not conducive to nuance. But also people are often much more deep and full of insight than their politics suggest

“thinking that non-westerners are people sounds like fascism to me. I’m a leftist by the way”

  All people are people, regardless of where they live. Borders are just another way for capitalists to fuel the class war. Keep malding that I’m not a tankie 🤙

    Literally just the most basic Marxist definition of the state. Calling this incoherent is an epic self own.
    
    Incapable/unwilling to understand is completely district from impossible to be understood.
