MODERATORS
Okedoke, well I just learned that I have no concrete grasp of political labels and need to do a LOT of research.
Extreme simplification:
Liberalism: supports capitalism. Current system + tweaks
Leftism: supports anticapitalism of some form, the two biggest umbrellas being Marxism/Communism and Anarchism
Marxism/Communism: supports collectivization, public ownership, and central planning (I have an introductory reading list if you want to learn more, or just read Principles of Communism)
Anarchism: supports full horizontalism and networks of communes
Thank you for the reading list! I'll take a gander :)
Sorry to say I'm a self aware liberal capitalist. I must say I love to consoom (with some moderation)
New kids are trying to pretend that liberal means centrist instead of its actual meaning which is simply "not conservative"
That is not and have never been it's meaning. In fact, conservatives are a type of liberal.
