I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

    centralisation of power is not an inherently right or left wing ideal, and some of the largest left wing communities on the fediverse are practically or outright authoritarian

    the centralising power thats being opposed being a profit oriented organisation does make it more of a leftist thing, though still not exclusively

      I’d say it is the definitive distriction between left and right. These concepts mean things to me on a vacuum. Show me a “left wing community” that is authoritarian and I’ll show you a community that isn’t actually leftist.

          Ok but if you want to discuss politics with me in any way, which you seem to want, your need to know what I mean when I say words. Maybe get out of the kitchen?

            you misunderstood the previous comment, it was me clarifying that i am no longer interested in discussing politics with you

            Maybe get out of the kitchen?

              And yet here you are. Isn’t that convenient for you? Just fuck off of you don’t want to talk, this isn’t an airport. You didn’t even say you didn’t want to have a discussion, you just didn’t want to get into sensitive.

                you just didn’t want to get into sensitive. (?)

                im uninterested in getting into your definitions of left and right

                your definitions of left and right are not sensitive to me, i just do not care

                i am even less interested in being on the receiving end of your tantrums

                your tantrums are not sensitive to me, i just do not care

                have a good night

                  I don’t care if your interested in semantics, they were necessary to the discussion YOU OPTED INTO. If you now don’t want have that conversation, fine, but don’t pretend like I was ignoring your request to not have it, because that’s not what your said. Framing it as a tantrum while you table-flip is rich. Since you don’t want to talk, I look forward to this being the last word. If you want to keep talking, you know what to do.

                  Have a good night
