Lemmy is primarily developed by Marxist-Leninists, and we have a ton of Marxists and anarchists in general. You aren’t going to get hate for being a leftist unless you’re on a more liberal instance.
leftist is pretty vague still because others are leftist to but each other’s mortal enemies like like anarchists and communists.
you have to study political theories to understand what they actually mean. most people calling themselves leftist in the united states are socialist-democrats because they don’t understand what socialism is due to not reading any sort of political theory.
Anyone to the right of anarchists and communists I guess. Find someone using the word “tankie” or “authoritarian” and you’ve probably found a live one.
Well. That one makes sense. So I’m leftist…… prepares for hate
I don’t think you’ll get hate for being a leftist on Lemmy.
Depends on instance and community, but in general I agree.

yeah brace for impact I guess
I know, I know, haha. I’m more gently prodding introspection than anything else.

Well, that, yes, and McArthysm and descendants.
Not all of us anarchists have been successfully propagandized to hate communists 🤷♀️
who does this sort of propaganda?
