I think of myself as left, I could be what’s considered far left, it’s not entirely clear what the delineation is.

To me “left” means socialized medicine, solid social safety nets, subsidized university, that sort of thing.

@bigheadtales @elduvelle

Do you support the complete dismantlement of all current systems of exploitation? Including capitalism? Congratulations, welcome to the far left.

@atatassault @bigheadtales @elduvelle
Nobody on the left wants to destroy Capitaism. They just want rules of the road. Same accusations of fear by the Radical Relious Right.
@GatekeepKen @atatassault @bigheadtales @elduvelle Nobody who falls under the category of "left" does, no, but that's what the category of "far left" is for, they definitely do. They pretty much don't exist in any great numbers in the US which is why normal lefties are often called "far left" by the extreme right.

So who's side are you on.

@[email protected] In the US I'd be very far left, just about everywhere else in the world I'm moderate left. I'm not sure I consider anyone who doesn't want to abolish most private ownership to be "far left". I don't think there's too much need for private vehicles anymore, but I'm still a fan of most private ownership. I'm even a fan of limited private enterprise, so there's no way I could be considered "far left".
