I don't remember any far-left opinions being popular there. Was stuff like worker's revolution or public ownership of the means of production ever in the Twitter mainstream?

- vrganj 6mo agoWhat's liberal identity politics have to do with leftism? Liberalism is a center-right ideology. Us leftists are concerned with class issues, not identity issues. Focusing on identity is nothing but a way to distract from class.
- gadders 6mo agoLol. Gender ideology is very much a policy of left wing parties. You may go for the One True Scotsman argument and say it's not proper leftism, and you may be right, but that doesn't stop it being policy.
- vrganj 6mo agoYou think Lenin was into gender issues? You think Lenin wasn't a leftist?
- gadders 6mo agoYou think Lenin is alive now? Name a gender-critical left wing party.
- vrganj 6mo agoPerú Libre. Your turn. Name a leftist party that's obsessed with identity politics.

- vrganj 6mo agoThose are all liberal, e.g. center-right. None of them argue for public ownership of the means of production, none of them argue for major redistribution. When have you ever heard them talk of class warfare? Like I said, identity is a way to distract from class and you're currently falling for it. Don't let the oligarchs deceive you, comrade. No struggle but the class struggle!

- vrganj 6mo agoDo any of them argue for leftist positions? I am not aware. Please use actual argument instead of assertions and derailment.
- gadders 6mo agoI see. This is some sort of weird purity spiral, where no party is left wing unless they meet your arbitrary chronically online standards that no-one adheres to in real life. Touch grass dude.
