No matter how many clowns keep calling me a “fake leftist” it doesn’t make it true. I’m not a leftist & haven’t identified as one since I left the SWP 16 years ago. I’m an internationalist, socially-libertarian Keynesian liberal, I don’t identify as anti-capitalist in any way
I don’t mind if you don’t like my politics, I really don’t care. But I do care about being accused of lying or misrepresenting the truth, because that goes against what I believe in. And I really am very outspoken, I don’t have to pretend to be a Marxist to gain your respect
Socially libertarian Keynesian liberal is a mouthful mate.
true but explaining my economic position doesn't say anything about my position on LGBT rights, abortion, drug prohibition or sex work, so that's why it's important. The far-left like to present themselves as the only people that care about these things & it's a brazen lie.
You make them uncomfortable because their constructs say you ought to think like them. If you don’t you must be a traitor. The only other explanation is that they are wrong. Privilege in action.
smdh, I can't believe how many times i need to explicitly tell people that i am not a goddamn socialist before they stop accusing me of being a fake socialist.
Shutting down debate on your fake socialism and thereby rejecting the free marketplace of ideas *does* seem a bit anti-capitalist tho. Bit suspicious
Well said. Totally agree. Don’t like the rubbish thrown at you.
You’re a top man - and we need plenty more like you
internationalist also connotes The Internationalist - Guy Debord et al hayati
