    We, left-wingers, like Lula.

    Right wingers aren’t liberal and never will be, even though they’ve tried to steal that term many many times. From leaders like Lula actually. I’m pretty sure he can read.

    It is funny that tankies are like reactionary right wingers, just pretending not to be

    (or maybe think they aren’t 🤔)

      Liberalism, being inextricably intertwined with capitalism, is a right-wing ideology. Tankies are often on the objectively wrong side of an issue, but that’s because, like fascists and conservatives, they are reactionaries.
