I love these three socialist lemmies. So I’m posting this here. Not sure how well or how mixed a reception this will get here. Not sure if the right place to post it. Plausibly shall step on some toes (with the bottommost instance of “not my left”) a bit. And I imagine there may be some responses nitpicking that 3 of the "not my left"s are more left than “my left” ~ to which I say, misses the point. Anyhoo… enjoy, or don’t. I strive to protect your freedom to receive things however you wish. Love that bitch called interpretation. ;D But I do hope it sparks some interesting thought, discussion, and maybe even is a useful tool. At the very least, it’ll help (a bit) to explain what I mean when I keep saying “not my left”, to those who misrepresent the authoritarian left as “the left”, or even really really misrepresent by calling the nowadays so-called “liberal” (left side of authoritarian right) as “the left”.

    Damn I’m amazed I missed you listing Hitler as a leftist. Good luck with that.

      Or half the purple party?

      Still missing the point about “not my left & not even left”?

      Did you miss me saying “No.” after that too? Like, the point being made there, is that’s not my list. Never encountered those who believe the Nazi party propaganda mislabel and really believe it’s “socialist”? Lucky you.

      {the replies that make me laugh just keep coming. XD}
