Can't agree more. It's amazing just how many posts I've seen since joining Lemmy equating the left and right, as if "workers should own the means of production" is just as bad as the literal genocide advocated by the hard right.
That said, given that lemmy.ml (and maybe latte.isnot.coffee?) is run by pro-CCP tankies, I think it's worth taking a second to say that defending the genocide of the Uighurs is majorly fucked and the vast majority of hard leftists here on Lemmy vehimently oppose that.
But one can't be hard-right and not be for genocide, basically. Not so on the left.
