The right/left distinction kind of breaks down when you start considering authoritarians with left-wing economics. That left is very keen on purity in a way I'd call cryptofascist, with an emphasis on the fascist.
Oh look, it’s the whole ‘everything I don’t like is fascism’ argument with the added wrinkle of ‘you can’t see it because they hide it, trust me bro.’
I'm talking about things like the Khmer Rouge, give me a break.
Well, I respect your tenacity.
