Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Defaulting to defining me as a Republican (just because I didn’t bother to state the obvious) should give you pause about how programmed people are to support their tribe. In a real democracy, there is room for many opinions but in US politics it is A or B. The lack of nuance is by design.
