Hey genius, the term leftist has existed longer than the term communist and stalinist have. It ain't new. Maybe learn some goddamn history before the start of the 20th century. Then maybe you'd know what fucking traitors Liberals are and have always been. Since their Inception.

Liberals are not leftists, they never have been. They certainly aren't progressives. You know what Liberals are? The birth mother of fascism. Fascism grows from capitalism. It's the end result.

Yes. The term means the spectrum of liberals (progressives), ultraliberals, and radicals.

This term ain't new either:

[A liberal is someone on the left wing of politics — the opposite of a conservative]

You are a Communist. That's why you treat all other leftists as "traitors". And you just proved you absolutely despise all the leftists who aren't exactly the same as you. That's why your fellow Communists killed all the real socialists and leftists in Russia. The Mensheviks, the Socialist Revolutionaires etc. They killed them all. Their chief enemies were OTHER LEFTISTS, not people on the right. That's why Stalin happily made an alliance with Hitler.

This is what happened before and would happen again if everybody listened to you:

Fascism grows from capitalism. It’s the end result.

So why didn't you just come out and say "anti-capitalist"? Instead of disguising yourself with the vague term "leftist", why don't you just own who you really are? Call yourself "anti-capitalist", "Communist", or at least "radical". How come you are afraid of using the real terms to tell people who you are? Because you know all those words have bad connotations and "Communist" is the cousin of "Fascist".

Its the same reason reactionaries call themselves "conservatives" Nobody every wants to admit being a radical or a reactionary.
