    Liberalism is right wing.

    Left and right wing are relative classifications. LIerals were left-wing in feudal times.

    Both conservative and liberal criticisms of communism are right wing criticisms.

    You should really learn to distinguish the contents of a critique from the party who uttered it. When liberals critizise the authoritarian structure of the USSR, that’s a leftist critique.

      I love the understanding nuance displayed in your post. Political groups I disagree with can have progressive and left ideas. The acknowledgment of political spectrums is also fantastic. Left and right do not capture the nuance difference in communism sought by ML’s and anarchists.

      I have been told ML’s don’t even want the same communism as anarchists. Moneyless, but the state and classes; that must be utilized for the revolution, my guy. Anarchists, by contrast, find the state and political class systemically flawed. May we build a better system than the state.
