I can excuse transphobia and covid denial but I draw the line at anti-communism, and criticism of Xi is racist

Points well taken but can we stop conflating leftism with social issues such as queer acceptance please? Thats at best a tangential piece of the ideology. I want class war not culture war.

Absolutely fucking not.

Edit: the only people who have downvoted this comment have argued to seperate leftism from the things that it champions.

Why not? Are you afraid we win some elections if we start worrying about the underlying issue instead of being goaded into the next silly culture war by the powers that be?
One of the major hall marks of right wing ideology is exclusion based on in and out groups. It’s also one of the worst aspects of the ideology. You want leftists to mimic harmful practices?
