Never talked to anyone on .ml or grad about those who fail their purity tests, eh?
They literally want to kill my grandma because she rented out their beach house when they moved back into town instead of giving it to a family in need. Sure they’ll say “landlords means blackrock” but in reality, my grandma was a landlord (and a damn good one, her renters loved her, fair price, fast with hiring fixers for broken shit, etc) and they’ll admit “yes her too” when pressed.
Well that’s fucking horrible. I don’t like landlords as a concept, and sure kill Blackrock, but someone who has 1 or 2 extra properties, who isn’t a slum lord is fine. Beyond that I disagree generally but I wouldn’t call for your grandma to be killed for it
Sure you seem cool, but there are many self avowed leftists that are very uncool lol. I think most leftists are more like you, though it does seem the authoritarians are gaining traction (but I’m not sure if that is just my exposure to them from lemmy, so I’m still unsure if they actually are.)
Perhaps the bigger issue imo is that those people are still accepted by society at large instead of shunned like actual nazis (which they parallel quite a bit,) they should be equally shunned, but they’re good at keeping the murder part secret until you ask “and what if my grandma refuses to give you her house when you come with your ‘revolution?’”
Genuinely asking, not trying to be a dick, do you think the far left actually want that too? What makes you say that?

You bring up some valid points
