Be whatever you want. But SAY you’re a centrist, FFS. Why give them ammunition?

Do NOT refer to yourselves or those allies or those on “our” side of the political spectrum as “left”.

You are NOT a leftist. We are NOT leftwing. We are NOT “on the left” or “to the left”. The word “left” has NO PLACE IN ANY DISCUSSION OF OUR POLITICS.

We are CENTRISTS. NOT LEFTISTS. There is no such thing as a “leftist”. It’s simply a term cooked up by these rightwing fascists to diminish and dismiss us. And when WE use that term ourselves, we’re playing right into their hands.


We are CENTRISTS.

THEY are rightwing fascists.



Understand?


So knock this sh!t off!


MAGA uses "the left " for any Democrat.

However, if you're a Bernie, AOC, Mandami supporter, you're a lefty. 🙂

I lost interest at “enemy.” I can’t take this post seriously. Either it’s a joke or this poor OP is quite a hateful person.

It is quite ironic that a poster talking about “enemies” doesn’t like the term “leftist.”

I’ve always assumed that any post that begins with “I’m a Leftist but…” is usually written by a MAGA trying stir up trouble.

I’m pretty centrist, but probably a far leftist from the view of the far right extremists in office now.

I always thought the “I’m a leftist” posters were really MAGA. I’m a Democrat. Would never say “leftist”.

Anyone who tries to label people so aggressively is making an already tense situation far worse.

Please calm down, OP.

Centrist - Firearms are OK, but we need background checks.

Leftist - Firearms are the problem. Register them all and then confiscate them all. Harass the citizenry until they give in to demands, regardless of 2A.


I'm not going to continue playing this game with you. Leftists are not anti gun. Leftists and Liberals are not the same thing, even though many Americans think they are. Liberalism is a center-right ideology. Leftists absolutely believe in having an armed citizenry. But we also believe in responsible gun ownership, and mental healthcare. The way the US does guns is irresponsible.
