    How is the community of “free speech absolutists” placed in the authoritarian region? That sound like maximum libertarian to me.

      Free speech absolutist is just a buzzword.

      It’s actually used by most people to mean “absolute free speech for me, so I can censor others”

      I’ll agree that they aren’t monarchists, they would probably be better placed in the lower AuthRight quadrant. However I still think they’re on the Auth side. Most of Lemmy likes to call them Nazis, though I think that isn’t necessarily true. Most of them are just Trump supporters.

      Internet leftists seem to think all right wingers are fascist. This is because a lot of right wingers think children shouldn’t transition, and that abortion is baby murder. Leftists can not understand why we think these things, and make up lies to explain it. Those lies say we are fascist.

        No. Internet leftists see that the leaders the right wing vote for are fascist. If fascism is your solution to the social issues you care about, then your are a fascist.

          Those are lies too. None of our leaders have any ideological connection with 1930s italy. (That one italian politician is an outlier and should not be counted)
