Some "left leaning folks"? Are you legitimately attempting to politicize theft?
- rangoon626 5y agoWell it doesn’t seem to be flyover rednecks voting for politicians who support this kind of behavior, so it does lead to some conclusions.
- esyir 5y agoUnfortunately, it already is. See the looting =reparations that was common on social media during the blm riots. Similarly, the "fuck the corporations, it's just property" crowd that was really prevalent on reddit then. Those are both solidly left, just as qanon is solidly right.

- zmalski 5y agoI think saying these fringe "political" groups are "solidly left" or "solidly right" really feeds into the hate and divisiveness they are designed to create. They're all either misled and disinformed or misleading and disinforming. They have no place in politics and are largely designed to generate that "us vs them" mentality. These groups are the fringest of the fringe and are far from "solid"
- esyir 5y agoI believe you might be misunderstanding me here. I mean you're not going to find left-aligned people supporting QAnon, while the same applies to BLM reparations talk for the right.
