>>15433842>Everyone I know is a lefty and even communist and they also hate how modern society has becomeMy guess is that your leftist friends fall somewhere on the spectrum of "maybe we should have socialized healthcare, like Canada" to literal communist. The guy you're replying to on the other hand is probably a stooge that unconditionally supports the Democratic Party and bases his political opinions on two things: whatever his party sanctions, and the exact opposite of what the other party proclaims (FPTP was a fucking mistake). The prevailing narrative on the right is that of decline, therefore he must believe no such decline is taking place. This in turn means that he can't accept that not everyone who believes the narrative of societal decline is on the alt right.
