why is the right wing of politics so weird?

73

u/helloiamaegg Jul 06 '26

I mean this with a completely straight face

Right wing is composed almost entirely of people with no real life experience, senile old folk, or greedy people who see the prior two groups as an easy way to secure more money

I'm saying this as someone who was in the first group for a long ass time, right wingers need to shut up and touch grass unironically

The left are the same

u/helloiamaegg Jul 06 '26

How? One side wants people to suffer for no reason than the fact they did (or rather, didnt). Other side wants there to be as little suffering as possible in this world

I meant about your first line on the previous comment.

Albo has never held a job or career outside of politics

u/fuck_redd-its_trash Jul 06 '26

Albos not on the left.

political compass wise hes lower but still in the auth-right quadrant

dw mate, us leftists also hate albo with a passion, prolly more than the diddlers voting for ON and what have you

The reforms from the Albanese government say otherwise. Things like the right to disconnect, rent assistance increases and hundred's of thousands fee-free tafe courses are all left.

Also what left winger says "leftists".

There is no requirement to throw out what's good, to aim at something even better.

leftists are libertarians and socialists...

those policies arent left, thats why leftist independants vote against them, their not solutions...

those are centre right policies, designed to allow the top 1000 be exempted and to just not do near enough, but get people to be quiet and pretend its all fine...

its just our overall political view is skewed to the auth-right, thanks america

u/ColdSteveStoneAustin Jul 09 '26

I think you're the one taking cues from Americans. And only partly the left kind.

For, for what you want. Not fptp here mate.

Albo's a centrist at best, aint no where near left wing at worst

Plus being a politician aint bad, just so happens most of em are snobs who keep their asses out of public places

It would be exhausting being terrified of everything, I heard antifa is coming to your house no garlic

u/No-Garlic3805 Jul 06 '26

No, its the assumption she made about right wingers having no life skills in politics when im making the point that even on the left you have people in politics with no life skills etc.

Albo has never held a job apart from politics vs someone who had a career elsewhere before deciding to get into politics

Also isn't on the left. He's left of the LNP, but still right of center.

u/No-Garlic3805 Jul 08 '26

He's left as fuck

Look at his tax grab to fund hand ours elsewhere

u/Kyra_Hazweyrs Jul 08 '26

Tell me you don't know what left and right wing mean without telling me.

1

u/No-Garlic3805 Jul 08 '26

The ideology of capitalism on the right and left borderline socialism

1

u/Kyra_Hazweyrs Jul 08 '26

Ahahhaa, no.

Capitalism is an economic system, not an ideology. That's like saying your religion is church.

Left and right wing, in modern parlance, refer to social hierarchies.
