I don’t think you understand, because you came out of left field to restate my point as “the only way to bring about systemic change is through Marxism.”

Wtf? Where did I say anything related to Marxism, let alone use the word?

I will reply to your quote:

There are other things like support for social justice and human rights, anti-imperialism and internationalism, desire for systemic change, secularism, opposition to traditional hierarchies, etc. Are you then going to tell me that these characteristics i have outlined are right wing? Or that they are only achievable by being Marxist or Anarchist?

No! Those things are only achievable through anticapitalism! Marxism and anarchism are examples of anticapitalist thought.

“Opposition to traditional hierarchies,” “desire for systemic change,” “anti-imperialism,” and “social justice” are hollow, offensive, and nonsensical when ignoring capitalism.

I’m not a Marxist, and you can call yourself whatever you like, but if you haven’t attained class consciousness enough to recognize that capitalism is a death cult, you’re a fucking liberal.

Friend, take the straight point as it’s delivered: capitalism is a system of oppression, and “liberals” support capitalism.

Leftists call those saying “this system of oppression would be perfect, with only some changes” liberals.

The bootlicking version of “why do you need privacy if you have nothing to hide?”

Well, an assumed connection between legality and morality is perhaps part of the disconnect.

Having sex with 16 and 17 year olds is not morally wrong *simply because they are legally considered minors and you an adult.

Having sex with 16 and 17 year olds is considered morally wrong, by some, because the state of their mental maturity is often far below that of an adult even 5 years older. Consider the biological “growth” of the human brain; having not fully developed, their behavioral maturity follows suit. This means their ability to reason, their ability to act in their own best interest, is less than your own. At a certain level of disparity, this imbalance is usually considered “taking advantage” of someone. Asking them to do things they have less an ability to understand than yourself starts to look a lot like coercion.

*ETA

I more or less agree, but you keep using “believe” when you ought to use “belief.” Just FYI.
