MODERATORS
The problem with the left everywhere is they don't have the balls to actually take action. They all talk about tolerance and how dialogue should make people change and be the politicians language. No. Certain things shouldn't be tolerated. Fascism and nazism are two of those. Democracy is above anything else. If a subject is trying to undermine democracy or the institutions protecting it, they should be considered a national threat and dealt with accordingly. The problem is that the left is afraid of being seen as "authoritarian" so when a fascist comes and openly says they want to fuck democracy until it becomes a dictatorship, leftists just say "hey now, let's sit down and talk". No, my dude, we don't "sit down and talk" with a fascist. We punch them in the face and tell them "fuck you, if you want to be a dictator, you're a threat for our country and will be dealt with as a terrorist". 80 years ago, we argued with Nazis by shooting them. We forgot and now we're having them in our governments again.
dont conflate liberals with leftists
Yeah -- has the commenter above seen literally any civil war ever? It's the leftists that show up
Wait, I thought the problem is that the communists are oppressive tankies. What's the conclusion then, the left goes too far or it doesn't go far enough?
Please tell me, which ideology do the famous and vilified "antifa", the ones who actually go and punch Nazis, espouse? Are they lukewarm Dems, are they republicans? Or are they actual leftists, both anarchists and communists?
This is true in some cases, not in others. You can argue this is true for Salvador Allende in Chile, you can maybe even argue for pre-spanish civil war Second Republic, but you can't argue this about Maoists or Marxist-Leninists. Those are as far to the left as it gets, isn't it?
Maybe the problem isn't with "the left not being active enough", but with democrats in the US and socialdemocrats in Europe co-opting the left thanks to the power of mass media? Maybe the problem is the century of anti-communist propaganda that we've suffered?
