Left and right are artificial, meaningless constructs

Left and right are very useful construct… as a spectrum… on multiple axis.

It just seems completely meaningless, because so much here is tainted by the US perspective. And neither do they have a spectrum (with just two parties), nor multiple axis (again, two parties can’t represent nuanced opinion on different topics). In fact they don’t even have left and right, just right-wing and more far-right.

No, bots aren’t a thing alhough a lot of people pretend them to be. Trolls are still either human or very obviously fake.

The crimes of the Soviet Union while claiming to be communist are well documented.

FTFY

And not everything left of Eastern European nationalism is communism. In fact 90% of the political spectrum lies between these two extremes.

You mean “pre-installed with most DEs”…

Close this tab right now and promise yourself never come back to see if someone gave you an easy answer…

but will it even be the same now that you know how little control you actually have?

Some communities weren’t even the same anymore after those 48h protests. And you can basically feel which parts of the community instantly left the moment they realized all that talk about protesting was bullshit and it was purely symbolic.
