Unrest in Los Angeles follows a recent pattern: Protests that break out remain mostly peaceful during the day, but at night agitators engage in fiery clashes with police.
I assume you’ve made a typo and meant to say “the far left morally or materially equivalent to the far right”?
Well first of all, I appreciate this discussion. Second, maybe…?
I for sure can see the pendulum swing the other way. You’ve got a nazi regime now, we bring out the far left, defeat the nazis, the pendulumswings to the other side, but it swings to far and we suddenly find ourselves in a Stalinistic hellscape.
You can call me a liberal for that. I can see why you’d say that, but I disagree since that’s not where we’re at. In reality the left are the freedom fighters now. They’re the good guys. I’m not a realist though, I’m a dreamer. I failed to communicate that in my original post and that is where I fucked up
And thirdly… yeah I think lemmy.world people know you’re trying to insult them when you call them a liberal. I haven’t yet met a lemmy.world person who calls themselves a liberal. It’s like call a Mexican a “bean eater”. No Mexican calls themselves that. It’s only other people who call them that.
