I wish it was just "towards the left".
I'm very much on the left socially and left of center economically, but even I feel like every other comments section on here reads like some insane tankie commune.
It's always a weird flavor, too. Like "I'm communist but only if I get all the wealth. Also I hate minorities but love the LGBT."
For some reason it just makes me think of Dennis on 30 Rock. "Fiscally liberal, socially conservative."
Where did you see that?
It's a bit of hyperbole, but Lemmygrad and Hexbear aren't far off.
A lot of their users believe that Russia is a communist state, not some crony capitalist society that would make Bezos blush. They also seem to really love Trump for some reason.
No where. "Centrists" love strawmen.
