Leftist is -such- a broad term, even excluding "Far Left."

If you're not aware of it already, read up on the Overton Window. Most "Leftist" Americans are seen as Center-Right to a lot of the developed world.

Liberals in America are basically conservatives that aren't authoritarian and still care about America.

  • American Republicans are considered far-right fascist authoritarians to the rest of the developed world, and rarely get more than a few % of votes.

Liberalism is authoritarian.

Lol "leftist American". You mean a right leaning moderate?

My brother in Christ, Jesus wouldn't be a democrat, but he would flip furniture at republicans.

Also, most of the world think you're all crazy. What's that measuring unit you use? School shootings per football field? Yeah, that.

Fuck your Christ. And yeah we measure your insanity by you're current level of bigotry and violence

...Jesus would be a socialist, you gimboid. Feeding the poor? Healing the sick? Being against money lending in the temple?!?!

These fascists are fake Christians and follow their anti-christs, like Trump, who want to destroy democracy, empower the billionaire class and rule by way of golden calfs.

Besides, being anti religious is being a bigot - you absolute troglodyte. I hope you stop being anti religious and start going out to touch some grass, inshallah.

Also, I'm an atheist...

I'm just that many steps ahead of you. Light years.

Why do you keep talking about this Jesus? Why don't we discuss what Quetzalcoatl was up to when his wife Quetzalpetatl was away while we're at it?

These trumpers are every bit as Christian as any other Christian.I refuse to let other Christians brush them away and brand them "fake Christians". These are the dregs of your religion, this is what your religion created. Own it and fix it, don't brush it off

...what do you think ops motives are? What do you think my motives are?

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

the OP is a person who claims to have grown up under a "communist regime" where they and their friends were raped. they also claim to be native. there's a lot of conflicting history in their comments.
