You can agree 99.98% with the hivemind, but then be only a lesser form of vegetarian eater but not fully vegan and…
OFF WITH THEIR HEAD
I used to be more leftist than I am now actually - discourse with leftist trolls has made me realize that much of the rhetoric is childish thinking (not all - I suspect there’s far more to my journey, but some of the talking points definitely are).
A lot of people treat leftist beliefs like rightist ones, where the goal seems to be to become holier than thou and look down upon anyone who has not read the latest in an absolutely endless array of books.
Yeah, it’s really discouraging. We could do so many great things if we could work together. That’s why they want us all fighting amongst ourselves. I’d be totally open to tankies if they were open to “liberals” (anyone who doesn’t believe murder solves everything).
Ah but then they wouldn’t be “tankies” - that term basically (even if not technically) meaning those who deny the reality of events such as the Tiannamen Square Massacre, instead preferring “alternative facts” like how poor Russia was “forced” into invading Ukraine - won’t someone think of the poor genocidal nations of the earth, who just want the freedom to be left in peace, in order to murder everyone when they feel like it! You all are such big meanie weanie-faces, not acknowledging the superiority of North Korea!? Why, if you would just read this book… (10 pages later) then you would willingly guillotine yourself, for the glory of mudder Russia the whole world!
Maybe I’ll switch to become MAGA, just out of spite?
The Left always eats its own.

LOL exactly. Remember when the Red Scare podcast was “lefty”?
