Comment on Reform UK pulls to within two points of Tories in latest YouGov poll
Wanderer@lemm.ee 4 weeks agoCongratulations on being black.
But there isn’t much I can do to convince you to be black or not so it is irrelevant.
Seeing as we are talking about views and information. Then views are are relevant.

I am calling horseshit on you being “a leftie.”
I’m sorry it wasn’t blunt enough the first time.
‘I’d always support [blank], but now they’ve nonspecifically gone too far! so I’m voting for the complete opposite’ is fascist propaganda. What’s it doing in your mouth, comrade?

Let me ask you bluntly then.
What makes a person left leaning vs right leaning? I’m talking minimum standard to be a leftie here not current left or current right parties.
I mean historically what views separate the right from the left?

Why would anyone put effort into spoon-feeding you your own claimed philosophy, when the root comment is generic whining that “the left has completely lost their mind?” Your sole bugbear is immigration (a stereotypical right-wing fixation) and all you’ve done is mumble about “more,” until it’s “enough.”
You don’t even know what valid criticism looks like.
Oh, sorry, you do eventually blame immigrants for housing and wages. Because scapegoating brown people is totes mcgoats the leftist approach to problems with capital.

Left has historically been trade and labour restrictive. This is why the left has lost their mind they are just making up things. The right historically pushes for free trade and free labour and low government involvement.
That’s why you can’t answer what separates the left from the right because you know it has nothing to do with immigration. You know full well I’m perfectly capable of having serious left leaning views and that I can also be against immigration so your whole argument breaks down.
What’s wrong with capital. It’s a much needed resource, both the left and the right agree on this. Unless you are a complete off the wall extremist.
