*my views

2018-02-07 21:41:53 UTC  

Thats not being a leftist

2018-02-07 21:41:59 UTC  

I think it has to do how the word nationalism is handled in my native language

2018-02-07 21:42:00 UTC  

Social democrats

2018-02-07 21:42:04 UTC  

Are liberals

2018-02-07 21:42:24 UTC  

leftist is a relative term

2018-02-07 21:42:26 UTC  

if you think social democracy isn't remotely left wing then you are marginally insane

2018-02-07 21:42:28 UTC  

Social democrats are actual peronists.

2018-02-07 21:42:57 UTC  

honestly seek help if you think that. You think an actual nazi would think that bernie sanders is a fucking rightist? Fuck off you idiot

2018-02-07 21:43:22 UTC  

Leftist is relative within systems only, and

2018-02-07 21:43:26 UTC  

The systems as a whoke

2018-02-07 21:43:32 UTC  

actually, I think left and right are stupid terms

2018-02-07 21:43:33 UTC  

Are known as liberal

2018-02-07 21:43:44 UTC  

He obviously said he wasnt american

2018-02-07 21:43:53 UTC  

call them what they are, but not that

2018-02-07 21:44:13 UTC  

how are anarchists and tankies in the same category

2018-02-07 21:44:20 UTC  

bloody stupid

2018-02-07 21:44:27 UTC  

Lsft and right refers to their positions in general on an axis

2018-02-07 21:44:41 UTC  

that doesn't exist

2018-02-07 21:45:02 UTC  

Not within a given political system relative to one another

2018-02-07 21:45:13 UTC  

And it does

2018-02-07 21:45:21 UTC  

Hence every test you've ever taken

2018-02-07 21:45:29 UTC  

Its just a means of organizing things

2018-02-07 21:45:34 UTC  

except if you use left and right only in the sense of economic freedom

2018-02-07 21:45:44 UTC  

Which you know they dont

2018-02-07 21:45:58 UTC  

if you think I'm not left wing, cool, but to many other people I would be seen as a left winger. You only see me as being right (I assume) because I do not believe as heavily in the 'left wing cause' as you do. Fine, but at least have the common sense to understand that your view of my views are subjective and are not worth arguing for that reason.

2018-02-07 21:46:00 UTC  

So its out of the question

2018-02-07 21:46:22 UTC  

You're left wing relative to your given political circumstance

2018-02-07 21:46:32 UTC  

So unless you live in North Korea

2018-02-07 21:46:36 UTC  

You're a liberal.

2018-02-07 21:46:39 UTC  

what's my political circumstance?

2018-02-07 21:46:57 UTC  

As liberal democracies are the primary method of organization on earth

2018-02-07 21:47:02 UTC  

And you have internet

2018-02-07 21:47:09 UTC  

So unless I'm living in dictatorial squalor I'm a liberal, cool

2018-02-07 21:47:11 UTC  

And speak english

2018-02-07 21:47:18 UTC  

And no

2018-02-07 21:47:39 UTC  

I mean unless you live in a system that isnt in liberal or democratic

2018-02-07 21:47:41 UTC  

Which most are

2018-02-07 21:47:47 UTC  

then I'm right wing?

2018-02-07 21:47:49 UTC  

You're a liberal

2018-02-07 21:48:17 UTC  

I.e. basically center, given this convo
