    Ok, I’ll bite, give me an example of “one thing wrong” that gets you labelled as an alt-right fascist.

      Supporting Ukraine, or liking Stalin. Depending on which instance you’re chatting in

        Ok you got me, I don’t see tankies as mainstream left wing, they’re fare gone but wouldn’t label them alt-right

          it depends, a lot of european politicians for example were recently voted out of office and replaced by far right dickheads in large part because of their anti-ukraine views… it’s alarming how common this is and how much ground the left has lost in a lot of european countries because of not supporting ukraine, meanwhile the right used this to their advantage and went all out pro-ukraine (for example in italy with fascist girlboss PM and her coalition). i think this was also a contributing factor in recent finnish elections.

          the right is uniting in eurpope for once, instead of hating each other, as well as taking advantage of anti-immigrant anti-LGBT sentiments in the population, meanwhile infighting in the left is causing it to crumble. it’s a terrible sign
