the person in the tweet you posted is an idiot, but posting red kahuna or whatever and saying all tankies are the same as nazis would be an equally incoherent thought. there are, in fact, two dimensions of popular politics, and unless you're a full on nazbol you know the red and green have far more in common than the auth right.

the existence of a state isn't an axis one can exactly be pegged onto, it's a collection of abstract powers and the monopoly of force that protects certain social/political arrangements. the goal is to control what political arrangements exist and remove the need to protect them (as they'll be beneficial to all)

my understanding of philosophy is that all right thought eventually traces back to some form of divine or religious right precisely because it rejects dialectics

Maybe having my political position and beliefs attacked constantly itt from the outset has something to do with it you disingenuous twit. The sheer amount of insular circlejerking cspam has slowly morphed into, where you not only need to be a leftist but also excuse historical genocide and have a constant, cloying half joking blackpill irony thing going on sucks and this thread might be the purest proof thereof.
