Well. That one makes sense. So I’m leftist….. prepares for hate
leftist is pretty vague still because others are leftist too but each other's mortal enemies like like anarchists and communists.
you have to study political theories to understand what they actually mean. most people calling themselves leftist in the united states are democrat-socialist because they don't understand what socialism is due to not reading any sort of political theory.
Well, that, yes, and McArthysm and descendants.
Lemmy is primarily developed by Marxist-Leninists, and we have a ton of Marxists and anarchists in general. You aren't going to get hate for being a leftist unless you're on a more liberal instance.
I don’t think you’ll get hate for being a leftist on Lemmy.
Depends on instance and community, but in general I agree.
