Being on the right of lenin is far right these days Stuff a guy made me realize on voat, is that, no matter how you interpret the left right paradigm/political spectrum, communism is always on the far left, while the rest tend to move around, depending of interpretation For example, people usually put nazism on the far right. And that's funny, because we're talking about socialism, national socialism, but socialism nonetheless. It's not exactly the polar opposite of communism, it's different and at the same time it remains totalitarianism, with similarities. Nazi germany wasn't exactly championing small gov and laisser faire, pretty much like the soviet union. Both cases dissents got fucked pretty hard for being what they were If I had to oppose anything to to communism, I would oppose it to anarchism, anarcho capitalism to be more accurate, and it's funny because anarchism is usually placed far left... And then you have anarcho capitalists... Not really far left, evidently Capitalism is also opposed to communism, while there's objectively no reason to do so, because one is an ideology, and the other an economic system, orange and apple, but I digress ... So yeah, racism is usually placed/attributed exclusively to far right It's funny because when you look at africa, south africa, the ANC is quite leftist, and racist Soviets weaponized the term "racism", the notion, to accuse the US of being that on the political scene, because slavery and shit, virtue signal type of stuff for the moral higher ground between the two, meanwhile soviets sponsored black communists in america to steer the shit... Dirty tricks, cold war Chinese are also super racist, very ethnocentred/ethnocentric, and well, the party is still pretty commie, at least in its roots, mao and shit And if you look at this nazi propaganda poster https://pic8.co/sh/FArnmd.jpeg , you can clearly see nazis labelling the US as racist, which is quite ironic coming from a super "ethnocentred" regime ... In the end, these days, and since pretty much its inception, "racism" is more of a political stick to beat your opponent with, than anything else Of course you have occurrences of racial discrimination, I wont pretend the contrary, and for some reason, it's at the top of the discrimination hierarchy, while being discriminated for any other reason simply isn't as strong, not even close You get people discriminated for being stupid, ugly, both, poor, right wing, religious, etc. You can eventually be hated for religious or political inclination, for merely having a flag. But the press don't give much of a fuck about those discriminations. But race, omg, they are all over it every single time, they're fucking hooked on anti racism virtue signal ... During medieval times, it wasn't race the ultimate focus, it was the soul. What was the most important back then, was to know if those new people you found, had a soul to begin with; are they creatures of god or servants of the devil? lol Not anymore, nobody cares about that these days Now we have racism, that, people care ... A world of shit
