  What is leftist about the present government? They are starving and freezing the disabled and elderly, criminalizing opposition to genocide, hanging their sins on trans people, and surrendering to private enterprise on every front. In many respects they surpass the previous government in their frothing bloodlust. What leftist would claim these freaks?

    Is that where lefties are at now - pretending that left wing governments aren’t now actually right wing since they’re acting fascist and authoritarian? 🤣

      You are confused.

      Liberals pose as leftists in order to define the leftmost limit of acceptable politics in a capitalist society - at best pushing just a few broken-by-design reforms to temporarily take the edge off. Actual leftists want the forces of democracy to overrun capitalism completely and permanently, rather than make futile attempts to appease it as the liberals do. Capitalist governments can only allow real leftists token representation at the most, and usually not even that, as it is imperative the ‘common sense’ be maintained that capitalist relations emerge from nature rather than from constant, feverish maintenance on the part of the propertied classes who stand to benefit.

      You aren’t on a corporate platform where you can talk like an american cable news pundit without anyone pointing out how ridiculous you sound.

        If liberals aren’t on the left, where are they?

        Actual leftists want the forces of democracy to overrun capitalism completely and permanently,

        The right are the ones that want democracy - power to the people, small government, well defined laws and regulations, and fair elections. The left and liberals want communism and authoritarianism. They crave it. They want to be controlled and given their rations, with extreme censorship and no differing views allowed, punishable by death.

        Amazing.
