Anyone who supports genocide is not a leftist, like, by definition.

Economy policy has nothing to do with supporting genocide or not.

Is there some workable definition of left and right? The terms have lost all meaning to me.

It like they're blanket terms for "everyone I agree with and everyone I disagree with", and the ambiguity makes it really divisive.

"You are X and I hate all people who are X". It seems bizarre that as the world has become more nuanced we've grown comfortable using such reductive terms.

(Not a criticism of your comment btw. I upvoted you. Just pondering this)

Haaaaaaaaave you read some stuff written by leftists?

There's whole instances here that would disagree with that statement.

Crazy, go ask a .mler about Stalin or Mao - then look into just how much of their rhetoric the DSA co-opts.
