I've noticed there is only ever a far right, never a far left.
Certain groups claim a far left exists
Specifically people on the far right
Far left is when the far right calls themselves socialists
The far right unironically beleive this
Without even saying goodbye? 😔😭
I see, so only the far right exists. Interesting. And the far right is so threatening yet seen as corny. Even more interesting.
Cringe would be a better descriptor than corny
Far right institutions are very much threatening, yes, they are using the literal gestapo to kidnap people off the streets and out of their homes. The standard supporters and stooges, you for example, are corny fucking idiots, yes.
I read your comment in the voice of Ben Shapiro. I would imagine you are as obtuse as he is.
far left, left, is aso demonized as being communist for decades nobody is going to publically admit they are, so they stick with being moderate/
Because your instance already defederated from lemmygrad and hexbear.
What was the abolitionist John Brown if not far left?
What was Lenin if not far left (even if in the end he was opposed to those left of him, what was he before in power when Bolshevism was nothing but the left alternative to Menshevism)?
What were the suffragettes who in the early 20th century were bombing and burning down churches and government buildings if not far left?
What were the eight anarchists wrongfully sentenced to death for the Haymarket Affair if not far left?
There are many "far" left people. Anarchism is far left so is communism.
The difference is what the ideology believes.
The far right wants people to die because they are not in the in-group.
The far left wants to level the playing field for everyone and fill all the needs of the people.
And your evidence for this is?
They are arresting, caging, deporting anyone not in their in-group and protesting with slogans such as “Kill ‘em all. Let god sort them out.”
Maybe open your fucking eyes.
it's literally in the intro summary on wikipedia:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-right_politics
see: the Holocaust
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-left_politics
See: Pol Pot
Pol Pot is your choice of historical figures to try to call out leftist violence? Are you playing dumb, or are you genuinely that fucking stupid?
Also, are you saying it’s wrong to use violence to fight back against violent authoritarian regimes? Is it ok for them to use violence and it’s only wrong when leftists use violence?
not sure how this is relevant, tbh ...
maybe you mistakenly believe I think the left doesn't use violence as a tool? How do you think slavery was abolished? How was the Magna Carta signed? How did we get the 40 hour work week? How did we get democracy? Bloodshed.
This isn't related to our topic or your question, which is about whether the far-right uses violence to maintain purity.
No matter how much violence the left uses to give women the right to vote or to free slaves, it doesn't justify the slaughter of Jews by the Nazis or other far right genocides.
Lol
$100 says you are a liberal.
Maybe pay more attention.
I see you dont live in latinoamerica. Here when people think "the left" they think of the tankie "fuck democracy" crowd
Sorry, you lost me, I have no idea what anything you wrote after "latinoamerica". Even that I'm not sure what it means.
i love your username.
They arent even unpopular, its suprisingly worrying
Would have been nice if the CIA didn't basically prove everything the USSR said about capitalism was correct.
Not in the US at least.
