"YOU CALL YOURSELF A PROGRESSIVE BUT SOMETIMES YOU GIVE CONSERVATIVES A HELPING HAND"
I swear
Thats legit dumb as fuck.
My friend at the time actually said that

But sounds like the left

Economically I haven't really changed
I'm still pretty much where I was
but socially and politically
I definitely have shifted far away from the left
its funny, I tend to consider right and left strictly in terms of property relations and economics
I don't see it as a social issues division
I do, and I think I did back then too
Because you know
back then I thought that was what really mattered
if you hated fags or not
I am exaggerating a bit
but the NPC meme is real
left-wing = collection of systems revolving around *social ownership of means of production*
right-wing = collection of systems revolving around *private ownership of means of production*
the reason for this definition being that every other definition is vague, transient and changes depending on the generation etc. whatever social current or pendulum swing. But the economic substance remains always - because the productive relation is a tangible thing
Lost many friends over my stance on Islam
yeah
Im just saying how I viewed it back then
it gets very murky when you try to apply the "left" and "right" of french revolution to the "left" and "right" of, say, 1960s (internationally) - they share nothing in common. so in order for the left/right dichotomy to remain relevant you would have to tie it up to something concrete.
but yeah that's perhaps an unnecessary tangent on my part. but yeah I do get what you mean, and Islam *is* shit no question
I absolutely hate both the left and right wing for both failing me
Hence why I am now a Post-Right Stirnerite Hitlerist
I could not bring up legitimate criticisms of Islam
I was usually hostile in debates, but I think it was in response to that
How I was treated like I was a problem
>any Abrahamic religion in general
It wasn't allowed
must be a country difference, but I've never found making criticism of Islam difficult in my country
I'm in the United States
my country is Finland
nah, that is left and center, right is taxing exports and imports
to fund the gov and letting the people be free
I came to realize that with many people into social justice, it's really just about justifying their own existence rather than actually making a difference.
