  Liberalism is supportive of capitalism, leftism begins at anti-capitalism. What did you think the left was before Lemmy?

  Corporate media didn’t want you to be exposed to any ideas outside of the Overton window.

    Sometimes the further left extremes I’ve heard hear are indistinguishable from conservative Q-Anon. I legitimately need to check users post histories to understand which extreme they are on

      They are very clearly distinguishable, just not to you yet. Until recently, you’d only ever heard disagreements coming from your right, so you confuse disagreements coming from your left with them.

      • ‘Horseshoe theory’ is nonsense – the far right and far left have little in common
      • Are the far-left and far-right merging together? That’s what the ‘horseshoe theory’ of politics says, but it’s wrong

       
      Liberalism in fact has more in common with fascism than socialism: they’re both capitalist ideologies. Previously.

      If you can’t tell the difference between “media owned by the wealthy reproduces their ideology” and Q-Anon, that might be a problem with you and not others.

      It’s very easy to distinguish if you actually act in good faith, which you clearly don’t

        The comment I replied to vs. this from QAnon page on Wikipedia.

        The cabal is thought to cover up its existence by controlling politicians, mainstream media, and Hollywood.

        Only difference is that your side is “right”
