- frashelaw 6y agoThose "left" are liberals obsessed with identity-politics, hardly the same as the actual left
- gitrog 6y agoNot sure why you're being down-voted, you're spot on. Hope one of the down voters will come and explain.
- root_axis 6y agoUpon re-reading the tweet that ostensibly triggered the takedown, I think I actually agree. Originally I read the author throwing out the insult "dirtbag left" as an indication that they were in opposition to the leftist message presented in the documentation, but with closer reading I see that this person certainly considers themselves to be on the left.
- dat_ire_is_said 6y agoThat the complainer uses "dirtbag left" disparagingly is quite telling, given that this style of left-wing activism started as a reaction to bring leftist politics back to its anti-capitalist roots, and away from the sort of hand-wringing politically-correct tropespotting nonsense the complainer likes to tweet about.
- jessaustin 6y agoIt would be better for humanity if we could distinguish between those who profit by destroying it and those who resist them. Defending IAP is not leftist.
