That's why I'd rather call myself center left. By US standards I'm still probably "far left", because I'm for public healthcare, strong regulations and very robust social safety net. But unlike probably most people here on lemmy, if someone runs a business that's not completely out of control and has unionized employees, I don't think there's a problem with that.

leftist : anti-capitalism :: liberal : pro-capitalism

Why is this so hard for some radlibs to understand? I think it is all the propaganda they passively consume.

If someone said they were leftist then I would very much hope they were pro EU and pro Ukraine

It’s the far right that is against those

Oh yeah that Ukraine is definitely the last bastion of communism

Pro EU being left leaning is one of the funniest things I’ve read in a while
