    Tbh the funniest part of this post to me is that it made me think there was some weird right wing board I hadn’t seen before (didn’t see the title though, praxis is an instant lefty tell lol)

    I don’t know why I assumed there would have been a good meme coming from a right wing source but here we are ¯_(ツ)_/¯

      it’s unfortunate that righties learned the word “liberal”, causing confusion like this. but it’s funny that so many of them technically are liberals if you want to be pedantic with definitions

        Probably to make the transition to fascism easier for the right wingers. ‘No, I’m not an ultra left liberal! I will support your anti-liberal stance, mister A.H.!’

        Your right wing extremism is less likely to be seen as extreme if you paint something as liberals to the extreme left of your ideology.

        Man, and if you call one of them a liberal, they will lose their fucking mind. Same when calling a libertarian a conservative, rofl.

        i really should have made the image more obviously leftist, by all means you could see this in a fash community and not seem out of place at all.
