I got banned from one of the communities for simply saying I thought both socialism and capitalism won't work without more nuance and blending.

I always figured the snowflakes were really the far right... But no, it's both extremes, apparently.

The extremes of each ideology are surprisingly similar my friend

I honestly had no idea before I came to Lemmy.

I actually really enjoy a lot of the facets of socialism and communism... Most people would easily mistake my independent political position as "left", especially since I strongly oppose the current GOP.

But here in Lemmygrad, I am apparently quite the villain for suggesting some extremist, far-left policies are toxic.
