It's funny when ML thinks they are the only leftists

Not an ML. And certainly don't think I'm the only leftist. Lots of different types of leftists, many I disagree with. But unless you're opposed to capitalism, then you're a liberal, not a leftist.

Liberals aren't leftists, but there's a whole world of political thought to the left of liberals.

I am a ML and everything I have seen of Jenkem's posting here makes me think they are probably a leftist.

We probably don't agree on everything, but they're no liberal.

Hey now. Anarchists and Maoists and a bunch of others are leftists too.

Liberals are not.
