Most people here aren't liberals, and are some flavor of Marxist or Anarchist, but at least Socialists. The Democrats being liberals and not fascists doesn't mean calling the Republicans fascists also calls Liberals correct.

The only one you mentioned better then a liberal is an anarchist, at least they don't want the government boot on their back thinking the government will save them from all.

I don't know what your saying at the end, can I get a reword?

Then why are you here then? Go complain to @[email protected] directly...

I thought this political activity was another purpose of lemmy.ml, besides FOSS?

Anarchists are Socialists, Capitalism cannot be Anarchist because Capitalism both requires a state to exist and requires unjust hierarchy by definition.

As for the latter part of my statement, I am saying that republican fascism being bad does not mean democratic liberalism is good, both are bad, but fascism is far worse. Neither option can be considered "good" and not many people here would consider liberalism to be their primary ideology. People here are leftists, not liberal right-wingers or far-right fascists.
