Some of yall already do this. "Oh I wouldn't say I'm a communist, I'm actually a fourth-term-stellar-gurbungali-antimheadovist".

You get one of these -
and that's more than it should be.

You're not some weird strain of abstract thought. You're a leftist, you hate capitalism, you want to seize the means of production and you want to create a world where children don't Starve and the homeless aren't. Worrying about how we should structure the fiscal policy of the GSSR is at best silly. At worst it's just a way to create division between you and other comrades.

I mean I don't usually like to call myself a leftist because it doesn't really mean anything. A leftist could be some random socdem or it could be a revolutionary socialist, and those aren't the same and shouldn't be treated as such

I get that, a lot of libs hide behind the term as well. That's why I do also acknowledge that you get one emdash

Fair enough. I usually use no em-dashes and just say Marxist, which obviously carries its own ambiguities but I don't really think I align strongly enough with a specific tendency to adopt that as a label.
