Liberals posing as leftists or socialists are the worst. They can’t even claim to know basic theory

Just to clarify, you have to read theory to be a leftist?

Theory and history yes. we have to learn about has and hasn’t worked. Leftism isn’t about basing your worldview around ideas and ideals you came up with

No offense, but putting requirements to even be considered part of a political party is why leftism hasn’t been able to take off in the US

We need to have at least very basic requirements in order to form a viable coalition 😭 you can’t just make shit up or only be anti-_____. That’s a liberal, idealist and individualistic framework

I think people are able to pick up on and understand leftist ideology without reading specific theory. I would bet that at least half of the leftists in here haven’t read actual theory books, but they still uphold leftist values and ideology
