The right side is just liberalism. This is what happens when the left and liberal are melded together in everyday western society/language and the water is muddied. It’s intended. It confuses people, overwhelms them, and leads them to use the apparatus that the ruling class has placed in front of us to circumvent true working class interests and movements. It’s why liberals scoff at potential allies (leftists), instead of seeing the truth: a unified working class.

We should make a special political spectrum just for these people. Let's call it the imperial political spectrum.

It's always the people who say 'I'm a hardcore leftist' or 'I'm as left as they come'

i'm as left as they come but I think Israel should "clear out" Gaza and that Trump makes some good points about woke going too far

Both can be correct, it's not a hard black and white split

Is equating the defense of Ukraine with that hat the entire point of the meme?

This framing isn't particularly helpful for solidarity.

The left relies on coalitions. Criticizing the stewards of those coalitions because they fail to address the needs of the people they rely on for votes is helpful and constructive. Just reducing all left-wing voters to a pair of stereotypes and trying to push one of those stereotypes away from the other? Not helpful.

We need nuanced dialogue and mutual aid. It's a matter of survival. This isn't that.
