      It must be a difficult task to be a far leftist on a far left leaning social media platform- and STILL manage to get downvoted into the dirt.

      But it appears as if you stepped out onto that stage in full costume and warmed up.

        far leftist

        I’ve been waiting for all the right-wingers to explain to me what this “far left” you keep gibbering about is… so far, none of you have ponied up.

        Will you be different?

        far left leaning social media platform

        Where is this (alleged) “far left leaning social media platform” you are referring to?

          ROFL!

          So, I’m either liberal, or a right-winger. You seem to have some trouble deciding on how you want to insult me. Give it time. I’m sure you’ll come up with something…

          Eventually.

          And if you think lemmy isn’t far left… you’re not paying attention.

              Holy shit… did you seriously just say that liberalism is a right-wing ideology?

              I don’t think it’s possible to take you any less seriously from this point on. Thanks for the laugh.

                Lol!

                There’s a saying amongst leftists, liberal… “Scratch a fascist and a liberal bleeds.” You wouldn’t understand what that means, because you get your politics from a bunch of talking heads on CNN and FOX news.

                Tell me, liberal - just who did you think the “foxes” were that Malcolm X was talking about? Who did you think the “Bourgeoisie” is that leftists have been revolting against all this time?

                Liberalism is a right-wing ideology - why did you think people who can be called leftist with a straight face wants to dismantle it?

                  I’ll tell you what, you stop with the “liberal” bullshit, and we can discuss this like adults. We both know you’re using it as an insult to circumvent the civility rule.

                  Until you stop, I can’t in good faith continue this with you because I don’t entertain discussions with bad faith antagonists.

                    I can’t in good faith

                    And what does your “good faith” bring to the table?

                    You essentially admitted to me that your understanding of the very political ideology you ascribe to is based on nothing but the very propaganda said political ideology has wrapped itself in… are you even capable of having a “good faith” discussion about it?

                    That’s a serious question, btw… no tricks.
