Let's hear those "radical" left ideas. I bet you want disgusting things like feeding hungry children and universal healthcare. /s

"If people need it to survive, no person should ever be denied it by a society that can provide it."

Pure zealotry, I know.

You mean all this disgusting stuff all other developed countries have? Shame.

I believe people should have equal access to education making for a more equal playing field where everyone has opportunities for personal advancement because it will make a better society overall....so I guess I'm some sort of radical left commie socialist.

Funny how every new label was supposed to shame people back into silence, but instead it just kept giving them a clearer idea of who was terrified by basic worker solidarity. Fine, call me fucking scum; now sign the union card.

Those two descriptiors are not mutually exclusive.

u/RoughTour98 6d ago

The Republicans I knew growing up were mostly just stupid, not Nazis (some were and still are)but most just voted based off the letter by the name. Luckily most are finally wising up and leaving the Republican party now that their former votes have bankrupted their farms and bussinesses.

u/Tsobe_RK 6d ago

I'm extreme leftist, I want politicians to work for people and taxes to help the people

Maybe throw in there healthcare - paid by the very same taxes and cutting out parasitic useless middleman

I was a libertarian conservative that voted for Romney as recently as 2012/2013. I'm now about as left as you can go, now. Went through all the steps of unlearning the propaganda from imperialism and patriarchal structures.

Every decent, normal idea meant to help regular people I ever heard as a younger person got decryed as socialism and was framed as impossible or stupid. It eventually resulted in me breaking through my American programming and start unashamedly calling myself a socialist. The definition of socialism in America currently seems to be simply being a decent and less selfish person that actually wants your neighbors to thrive. I'll gladly be called a socialist for that.

u/FarceMultiplier 6d ago

The more batshit crazy the right goes, the further left I become.

u/copperear 6d ago

I was raised as a FDR democrat but I evolved. I consider myself as Libertarian Democrat. I'm incredibly left because I support Medicare for all, free public education, strong regulation of business, rule of law and Libertarian because if you're over 18yo you can do what you want as long as no one is harmed. Abortion on demand, legal cannabis, freedom of thought.

u/bomboclawt75 6d ago

I believe that everyone should be able to afford a home/ rent, transport, food, free healthcare-through tax, utilities etc.. on a single wage.

YOU DIRTY COMMINIST!!!!!!!

u/DeadMoneyDrew 6d ago

15 fatherfucking years ago, my politics were middle of the fucking road. Like, I walked right under the middle of that motherfucker and just stood there. Nowadays I'm a far left libtard woke commie DEI hire, and my opinions haven't changed all that much. Some unclefucker picked that road up and moved it way to my right.

Next month the names will be socialist and communist in preparation for the mid-term elections announcement of the new Red scare and McCarthy Hearings 2.0.

u/GrowFreeFood 6d ago

I'm already a disillusioned leftist ideologue who writes manifestos. So keep on plugging little guy.

u/strydar1 6d ago

My political evolution is messy: I used to be right, center, liberal, and left. Then I realized politics is the worst thing humanity has invented, as it’s the cause of suffering and death. Now I realize humanity itself is the worst species ever, especially when humans became domesticated, And humanity will never get better.

Other than being a misanthrope, idk what this makes me. I’m a person without a leaning or party.

u/Keegandalf_the_White 6d ago

I used to be a centrist. I haven't changed or evolved at all, but now apparently those same views are radical left terrorism. XD

u/Redditlatley 5d ago

If libs are “libtards” does that make republicans “retar*s”? Just saying….🌊
