@UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world is being satirical, but this is a genuine and dangerous thought process for rightists. Every time one of their own practices what they preach and commits a violent atrocity that is not immediately acceptable to their party (like the assassination of the Hortmans or attempted murder of the Pelosis), that person is automatically a “leftist.” The reason they can never provide any definition for “leftism” is because they have no idea. To them, leftism is “everything bad” and “anything bad” is automatically leftism. It’s a catch-all bogeyman term for political out-groups that can’t be easily sorted into skin color, sexuality, or genitalia.
One of the funniest moments after J6 was the real-time shift from all the right-wing AM Radio Heads insisting their movement had been infiltrated by Antifa to them cheering it on and calling the rioters patriots.
Shame Biden didn't put the whole movement in the grave when he had them on the ropes. But that's Weimar Liberalism for you.
I recognized the name, but I couldn't remember which way it went that I remembered it. I really wish they had tags for users on sh.itjust.works. That would solve a lot.
