I ventured over to the website “disboard” to try to find more online friends that are at least slightly left of “hunting the poors for sport”

I came across “Leftist Alternative” and I’m 99% convinced this was a fed honeypot

https://disboard.org/server/1085633149540777994

I answered all of their “prerequisite/verification” questions. Mostly my answers were of the variety of “Amerikkka imperializes the planet for the 1%” and “it’s not the left vs right, it’s the 99% vs the 1%”

They gave me a LOT of push-back for not acknowledging the “genocide” in China. But it really went downhill when I said that the imperialism of Ukraine by both USA and the Russian was/is a fairly nuanced topic.

Obama Admits US Role in Ukraine Overthrow

Pro-US, Nazi-glorifying government

Ultranationalism, anti-semitism, neo-nazi pogroms, and attacks on LGBT groups.

Ultimately I ended with, “Every war is a banker’s war” and included I was against any/all imperialist movements (including Afghanistan, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Haiti, Congo, Liberia, and Sudan), but I could definitely see why NATO advancing, despite saying they wouldn’t move a single inch towards Moscow, would incite a push from Russia to get their old trade buddy back (not to mention Blackrock/JPM front-running grain futures before the invasion and then vying to steal the mineral rights away from Ukraine in exchange to build it back up)

This really set the feds off…

“OH YOU HATE JEWS DO YA?” - ‘Leftist’ Alternative

“Wait… huh?” - Me

“A ‘Bankers’ War Huh??? We could just tell you were an anti-Semite”

“Are you insinuating… that all Bankers are… jewish?” - Me

It immediately devolved into ad-hominems from the “lefties” so I left that right-wing hell-hole :(

Is Every “Leftist” Discord a Fed Honeypot?

Or are the lib brainwormsreally just that deeply ingrained at this point?

Edit: Missed an end "

    Is that the problem of a single axis? Sounds like you’re describing the problem of a binary that would be nicely solved with an axis

      A binary left/right would place things in absolute terms, and I’m not sure how that would look exactly. The single political axis allows for left/right to be placed in relative terms, and what happens is anything slightly left of far right becomes leftist in relation, despite not being leftist in the absolute. The single political axis is what I think enables our vibes based politicking, largely.
