Well, if you want to abolish currency, inheritance, and all personal property you may be far left. Otherwise you may just be a compassionate for the poor.

No leftist in their right mind wants to abolish personal property.

Private property (factories and machinery) ≠ personal property (your clothes and fridge)

This is a far too little discussed distinction.
