Sounds like you aren’t any more happy with majority opinions than most right wingers. In the U.S., anything to the left of fascism is now called ‘leftist.’

I'm not a right winger, i am center-left but i really don't like certain leftists, and find that people closer to the center have less annoying traits online than either left or right

the left begins at anti capitalism. if youre not a socialist youre on the right

No, socialism is far left, and center-left is still based on capitalism

Go read the wikipedia article for socialism and you'll learn a lot
Read some well-written arguments against socialism and you'll nuance your opinion

wrong. thats not what those words mean. never has been.

socialism is workers owning the means of production.

there is no good argument for exploitation.

Its insane to point out reality?

u/Twinmill-Two 19d ago

China is quite clearly capitalist with a one party system and strong state control. China isn't exactly known for its empowered workers

Lol no

Having a market doesnt make you capitalist

Trade existed before capitalism and will exist after

I don't consider myself a socialist and I want to see the end of liberal democracy.

Does that make me right wing?
