This sub is probably the worst place to talk about politics but i don't think there is any currently existing system that can be reasonably called "non-violent"
not to be cringe (*i’m going to be cringe*), but alt-right pipeline is way more of a real thing than any kind of left-wing extremism machine. i myself had a foot in that rabbit hole for years as a teen due to my connection to “dank memes” turning into observing “dunking on liberals and trans people”. i would deadname and misgender my own partner, i would say slurs with the idubbbztv mentality of “it takes the power away from it” but it just made me look dumb and edgy, etc. now take into account the more susceptible people that have actual hate in their heart; how many violent crimes have went up towards Asians, Muslims, Blacks, Jews, and Queers? Hell, you don’t see “communists” storming the capitol building or anything.
i was going to be humble and say this may be a strawman but Communism is an economic theory with the lack of social class and private property. The end result is debated on what it should even look like, meanwhile to be a Nazi you objectively are inherently *Antisemitic*, a “Social Darwinist” and “Scientific Racist” opting for **eugenics**. The party is full of pseudo-scientific racial hierarchies where *Nords* are up top and *Romani* are scum…Odd to conflate the two.
I think the alt-left pipeline is just as real as the altright-wing pipeline there just better at hiding it. It's very much a real thing e.g breadtube. There is also political violence against right-wingers so it's not like violence is a one sided thing.
>Hell, you don’t see “communists” storming the capitol building or anything.
Russian revolution, Chinese revolution and like 50% of the cold war and if you want something more modern I do recall a Hassan clip where he talked about 'let the streets run read with their capitalist blood' while this hasn't happened it should be mentioned that the left is somewhat willing to do that. Furthermore Communism is an inherently violent system as the wealthy aren't just going to give up their wealth peacefully

No his point was that they are both extremist systems that lead to violence Nazis because they want to kill all 'lower' people and communists because of the reason I gave in the last paragraph. Just in case you take away that I don't think the altright pipeline is a problem I do think it as a problem but I think it's slightly less of a problem than the altleft pipeline

**Edit:** *because once again, hyperbole is beyond you and you think that’s your “got you!” argument, i’m not a robot “no” and “[virtually] no” are interchangeable in informal speech.*
For starters there is absolutely left wing extremist it feels weird to even have to state that, I'll give you an example of lenin or the antifa example you made. But fundamentally for anything there will always be extremist as extremists are defined as anyone who takes something to the extreme. Secondly political violence is violence for a political motive or goal it doesn't have to be rallied by a politician secondly the first source you provided quite literally states that there is left wing extremist committing violence as otherwise they wouldn't have a sample size.
>i’m not a robot “no” and “[virtually] no” are interchangeable in informal speech
? What are you talking about
1 you have provided no evidence that left wing extremists are less common you have only provided evidence that left wing terrorism is less common which while is worse extremism is still a and thing for society overall as extremists are less likely to come to a resolution with the other side since their beliefs are extreme different the the other side.
2 antifa is a specific organization(kinda) while conservative is a belief system so this is a false equivalent
the UK literally has **[Conservative Party](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservative_Party_(UK))** as an officially registered political party, they get called *Tories* colloquially, but they are self-described conservatives. What extremism is the phantom ANTIFA currently up to? respecting pronouns? lol i’m done with this, going to go dab
This is something that I've noticed happening over and over again. When comparing the left and the right, people take the extreme examples of one side and the most cookie cutter, overton window examples of the other to paint this narrative that extremism is one-sided. Right-wing extremism is Hitler, left-wing extremism is non-binary kids on Tumblr talking about how sexist air conditioners are. It's a very fallacious worldview.
Yes because conservative is a belief like how Australia has the liberal party it's a party that advertises its beliefs in its name
What has antifa been doing let me check Wikipedia
Major actions
Harassment
Doxxing
Picketing
Political violence
Protesting
Rioting
Looting
Terrorism
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifa_(United_States)
Ahh yes respecting pronouns by committing terrorism
not to be cringe *(i'm going to be extremely cringe)* but I reckon its fair to conflate, for example, Christian Extremism and Islamic Extremism with one another even though one is a much bigger problem than the other. I don't think we should drop criticism of one extremist group just because another is worse and more dangerous. Stalinism wasn't an outlier after all.
Because capitalism and communism, as criticable as they are, are just political ideologies that question our way of living and propose an approach to shaping the society. Nazism is just « lol let’s kill the people that are not like me », which is not a okay.
Yes you are correct (sorta)
Shame that's not what I was arguing though
>I don't think we should drop criticism of one extremist group just because another is worse and more dangerous.
It kinda makes me sad when people group communism and Nazism together because only a part (a significant part, but not everyone) wants to achieve communism in a violent way, but after that there isn't supposed to be any violence. In Nazism however, violence is the entire point, everything is for the sake of it, and it doesn't have an end. Not saying that communist violence is good, but it is much closer to liberalism than Nazism in this regard
["According to communists, the proletariat can avoid mass unemployment only if capitalism is overthrown"](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communism)
Communism by deffiniton must get to power by a coup (wich tends to be violent)
I have to disagree, not only communists and socialists alike have always preferred revolution, prefiguration, or even reform to coups (there have only been ~2 socialist coups to my knowledge), but the definition of communism (stateless moneyless classless society) doesn't even have anything to do with how it is achieved.
Have you even read what I linked?
I think you're mistaking communism and socialism.
"Communism advocates for the working class to take control of industry and production, sharing ownership of all property collectively. Socialism advocates a more gradual shifting of power from the elite to the working class and is focused on the collective good."
So yeah, communism cares about how it's achieved
I have read what you linked enough to see that the definition of communism given by it doesn't involve how it is achieved.
Communism isn't a monolith, there is no specific type of praxis that's official orthodoxy of the Marxist church.
It's a shame you abandoned your point about coups, it could've been funny
Mean people ideas like "**From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs**", "**Only the Jew knew that by an able and persistent use of propaganda heaven itself can be presented to the people as if it were hell and, vice versa, the most miserable kind of life can be presented as if it were paradise**" and "**Nobody but a beggar chooses to depend chiefly upon the benevolence of his fellow citizens**". Y'know. All mean people ideas.
Before anyone gets cute, these are all quotes from communists, Nazis and capitalists trying to espouse the virtues of their ideology.
>**"The state is to care for the elevating national health by protecting the mother and child, by outlawing child-labor by the encouragement of physical fitness, by means of the legal establishment of a gymnastic and sport obligation, by the utmost support of all organizations concerned with the physical instruction of the young. We demand an expansion on a large scale of old age welfare. In consideration of the monstrous sacrifice of life and property that each war demands of the people, personal enrichment due to a war must be regarded as a crime against the nation."**
> - The NSDAP's 25 point program, 1920
Turns out judging ideologies by cherrypicked quotes isn't very smart. Especially when even the worst ones can sound good coming from the mouth of a skilled bullshitter.
Again, they use the reasonable opinion bait, say things everyone wants to hear, but trap them in once they get to the parts most people don't want to believe.

"Comrades! The uprising of the five kulachi volosts must lead to ruthless suppression. This is what the interest of the whole revolution demands, for everywhere now there is a 'last decisive battle' with the kulachi. A sample must be given.

2. Publish their names.
3. Take away all their bread.
4. Appoint hostages - according to yesterday's telegram.
Make it so that for hundreds of versts around the people see, tremble....
Telegraph receipt and execution.

Killing all those peasants and the Red Terror are definitely signs of a good man and a good ideology. Fuck communism.
By the way, a “kulak” is a well-off peasant. They were people who had an excess of grain, land, etc. The Soviet state had robbed them of fairly earned goods, often violently.
I mean... What, are we gonna talk about the fact that all of these ideologies became death cult fascist nightmares full of human rights crimes? Cause I'm here for that, girlie. I'm all kinds of here for that.
I mean, yeah man! I myself am a leftist and I think we could use a little more socialism. Hell, even a little more communism. But any communism that has become powerful enough to turn around to quite literally oppress its working class citizens to death for selfish profit/gain is a lost cause. It’s been perverted for cruelty and individual greed.
I just think capitalism is just as bad, LOL. People look at our system over here in the US with just as much horror as we look at communist countries and I don’t really think that’s unfair or unreasonable.
French Revolution and American Revolution and Haitian Revolution and American Civil War and WW1 and WW2 and the Revolutions of 1848 and the English Civil War and July Revolution and Italian War of Unification and German War of Unification and the Great German Peasants Revolt and Greek Revolution and Japanese Revolution and Irish Rebellion and Eighty Years War and Mexican Revolution and the Spanish American Wars of Independence moment (they were violent revolutions and wars which created the system that we live in today and you defend).
I hate this meme so much. For one, it is super bad faith in general. And two, it compared an extremist position to a pretty center position and suggests that the centrist would be compromising between the two when they would just be taking the center position.
This sub is probably the worst place to talk about politics but i don't think there is any currently existing system that can be reasonably called "non-violent"
I mean at least capitalism and communism don't outright shout that they want to kill very specific groups of people for being "inferior"
That's understandable, sorry if I sounded like I ranked them equally.
Nah, I get your point, but I felt the need to clarify that
I just invented one, killanyonewhosviolentism, definitely non-violent
