In this day and age we hear a lot about how the Left-Wing is pretty divided, and is constantly in conflict with itself, while the right-wing never had such drastic cases of Infighting. So why exactly does this happen? Why is there so much leftist infighting? That is a question we will aim to answer today.

The problem with the Left crowd is that it often advocated for immediate and revolutionary government action and also had way too many radical things to wish to get acted upon. "I want this now!" "No! I want that now!" "I need the other one or I'll die of mental anguish, revolution must happen!" and such.

It all comes down to 1) Class consciousness and 2) Theory of change. There can't ever be any solidarity between leftists and progressives-- and definitely not between leftists and liberals because they simply are not on the same team, and they're not even aiming for the same outcomes. I will explain. Since these words are so convoluted and now everyone is using them interchangeably, we'll start with some definitions: a) LIBERAL: The term "liberal" has been pretty much standardized going all the way back to the European Enlightenment era and its related intellectuals. The short strokes are that the liberal enlightenment was fundamentally elitist, pro-capitalism, pervasive among the petite bourgeoisie, favored bourgeois politics, often favored eugenics, and also adopted somewhat humanitarian values viewed as intellectually progressive without actually challenging class hierarchy. So, as Chris Hedges expounds so brilliantly in his 2009 book, 'Death of the Liberal Class,' it's clear how this remains the liberalism of the Democratic party, its media machine, Hollywood, and liberal academia. "Wokeness" is pervasive among the liberal class, because it is a useful tool for obfuscating and silencing class consciousness and class struggle. b) PROGRESSIVE: These are the insidious figures among much of the former Bernie Sanders contingent along with various lesser progressive politicians such as "the Squad." This is where theory of change becomes important. Progressives proclaim almost all the same values as leftists with exception to their very obvious and disturbing silence on imperialism and colonialism. Their fantasies of European-style social democracy depend on exploitation of the global south and perpetuation of capitalist dystopia, but they do not acknowledge this. Instead, they was poetic about a "nicer capitalism," one that mostly benefits people domestically, and take little interest in the machinations of empire abroad. Progressives adhere staunchly to the mythologies of "harm reduction," "lesser evilism," and reform over revolution. This is why, although they will *say* they are for (almost) all the same things as leftists, they don't hesitate to sell out their values when the election comes down to yet another Democrat versus yet another Republican. The truth, which few progressives admit to, is that for most of them these leftist values such as universal healthcare are not existential for them. They tend to be fairly privileged managerial class liberals that hold farther left ideals than their liberal counterparts but aren't willing to inconvenience themselves or put anything on the line to get them. But instead of admitting openly to that (because it sounds bad when you say it out loud), they'll tell you they are being "strategic," "rational," "adult," etc. and scoff at anyone telling them that the system OBVIOUSLY cannot be reformed. c) LEFTIST: Leftism *begins* at anti-capitalism, anti-imperialism, anti-militarism, anti-colonialism (permutations of the same things, but just to spell it out unambiguously), and centers class struggle and working class solidarity above all else. This is because a thorough examination of revolutionary movements proves that all sweeping, systemic social and political change relies on these two things. They veer away from cancel culture, culture wars, and pointless virtue-signaling over woke cultural values. Although leftists are for equity for all people, they do not agree that there is a path to those outcomes either through aligning with the bourgeoisie-- as progressives continue to do-- or through fighting downstream battles between smaller and smaller sub-factions of society, each arguing over whose individual interests should come first. Leftists were usually liberals or progressives at some point earlier in their political activity, and became radicalized over time generally with a copious amount of self-education about how power works in capitalist systems. This is why you will not see leftists voting for Democrats, and rarely will you see them making common cause among progressives with exception to the Palestinian liberation struggle. Leftists are justifiably suspicious of progressives for reasons that should be obvious given the above description of them, but most pointedly because they know progressives will nearly always sell themselves out to the liberal machine when the going gets tough, thereby making them unreliable allies. So this should clear up the mystery of why there is "in-fighting" among the so-called "Left," which people often define according to their own whims convoluting the entire subject beyond recognition. You cannot fight a battle with people that are not seeking the same ends. If your aim is to make a nicer capitalism and "reform the Democratic party," the people that see an urgent need to burn the entire system to the ground are not going to join your team. If you're too scared of letting the red team win the inning and telling yourself the blue team will make your life slightly less horrible, again the people that recognize *the entire system is the problem* are not going to have anything to do with you. This makes for irreconcilable differences-- in fact, the only faction among those I just described that are ACTUALLY "The Left" are the leftists themselves. The progressive and the liberals are just Democrats. So it is unconstructive and disingenuous to present this as a bunch of people on the same team arguing over petty grievances that just can[t put their personalities aside. The end.

Yeah, the standards people have, what they're willing to sacrifice their dignity and self-respect for, and what price they're willing to sell out their values and morality, totally doesn't affect society at all, especially if a bunch of people act in a way in which they sacrifice their morals regularly for things such as money or self-indulgence or clout on the internet. Totally not right? I swear, these people have no sense of how their actions affect others. No wonder they're the types who are always causing riots and looting stores and just overall being bothersome idiots. As for the question, that isn't a dilemma at all. If everyone did that regularly the world would be a worse place, and it'd lead to a slippery slope of even more depraved things than that. Once you normalize such a terrible thing obviously people will start looking for the next high.

I know from experience that in the end what most right wingers disagree on with each other is not the end, but the means. A Conservative's end goal is to preserve traditional values, so if a conservative monarchist and a conservative republican stumble into each other their discussion will be like: "We need a king because he is like a father to the nation and will be an example to the people on the values we should abide to" "Have you seen modern royals?! They are all degenerates, what we need is a republic like that of ancient Rome" What they disagree on is the form of government, not the values of the society. Even libertarians will likely share the same values with conservative statists, and the disagreement will be over how much the state influences us and what will naturally lead to degeneracy: government or anarchy Anyway, the Gramsci Ace Attorney killed me ahahah

Except it’s the exact opposite. It’s about holding people to a moral standard, and not compromising just because those people are the same race as you or whatever. For example, if their leader lied about the crowd size at their inauguration ceremony, they’d lose respect and criticize what is an obvious lie thanks to the clear photographic evidence. Conservatives on the other hand, will see anyone pointing out the correct crowd size as disloyal and will unite in hatred against the obvious out group who don’t conform to the in-group loyalty.

Leftists are most united when confronting a common enemy but are simultaneously inflexible as well as disorganized when left to their own devices. A socialist and a communist will view each other as radical enemies when placed in the same room even if they share some common ground on how to structure the economy. This is a stark contrast with how a conservative and a fasc will overwhelmingly agree on social issues, for the most part, and will find common ground if placed in the same room even if they disagree heavily on degree of application and how centralized the government should be.

While snu-snuing the chicken he calls it the n-word? "Evil! Destroy his life!" This is an area I disagree with Haidt: I don't think the left only values care and fairness. "You said the n-word in private!" isn't at core an accusation of harm (care) but of blasphemy (sanctity). "Trust the Science" (an authority) was a chant the leftists took up with gusto over lockdowns. Their loyalty is to abstracts over particulars: turning on the KZfaqr they've followed for years is turning against the traitor to their true loyalty. And Marx's utopia is one of maximum freedom from any constraints of scarcity or society. The left isn't absent in moral foundations beside care and fairness: what these are to them is simply completely alien to our own or traditional understanding.

Yes, you’re exactly right, and there’s political theory that proves this. Marxist dialectics is all about contradictory ideas coming together and forming a synthesis. This is why the Nazis were so successful, they played into the polarized political nature of post WW1 Germany. It was attractive or at the very least, tolerable to the most people. And if not for the wealth of nations outside of Europe (primarily the US) and the amount of meth hitler and the army was addicted to, they may have well have won. It’s the perfect synthesis of contradicting ideals. Both the far left and far right operate in similar ways, purges of opposition. They hate the same people, their economies operate in very similar ways. Hitler realized this, Marx realized this with his vitriolic antisemitism and his conflation of the bourgeoisie and the Jewish people. Hitler only put those ideas in practice, that’s why he hated the USSR, he thought it had become to be overwhelmed with Jews. The USSR was “too friendly” with Jews by initially being in support of zionism. But after the war we see Stalin shift, the rhetoric against the Jews is steeped in hatred and the ethnic cleansing begins. Stalin was only continuing Hitler’s project. Despite how much people hate it, there is a reason why economists compare Nazi Germany to the USSR. What we’re witnessing now in the US is scarily similar with the breakout of the war in Israel. The far right and far left are starting to align.

not really no, in all forms of practice, fascism is capitalist. it retains private ownership, class rule and wage-labour relations. if you look at history fascism only rises with failed social revolutions or during economic collapse of capitalism. the job of fascism is to protect the capitalist mode of production by any means neccesary, this is not what classical fascism is like of course, but classical fascism is mostly dead and only levadir himself actually endorses it (under the name corporatism, but even Mussolini admitted that fascism is corporatism) decent book on this subject would be fascism and social revolution, its pretty long but also pretty informative, and it explains where fascism ideologically and economically came from, what caused its rise and what is its purpose. you could classify the rise of fascism to two main parts, rise of classical fascism, and rise of modern fascism first fascism manifested itself as what id call medievalism, the one Levadir advocates for, this was a middle class ideology and advocated for skilled producers owning their means of production, similar to how pre-industrial capitalism worked, with skilled craftsmen "masters" and their apprencices working in artisinal production. in its second epoch, fascism arose out of the crisis of rate of profit, during 1920s and 1930s, as a solution to this crisis, and it was quite popular in many countries, it advocated against labour saving measures, against socialism, against capitalism, but when put into power, it assumed its true class role as a big bourgoise ideology, serving only the richest industrialists.

As much as I am a Social Democrat.. Yup.. absolutely correct. I hate most Leftist ideologies except Social Democracy because honestly? Most of us are f#cktards. Who wouldn't survive a minute unless being precise with how they wanna start the new ideal Govenrment that we want. And I am basically doing that. Starting from scratch, starting with Philosophy and applying Psychological behavior to use it to get out of oppression. Legal Revolutions if the walls seperating State buildings and people are surrounded by 4-5 layers of people Protesting. Philosophy to know how to recognize the terms, WHEN and HOW to overthrow. Leftists Are dumb And the sole reason I am not a Monarch is because I don't believe much in inheriting positions or much power. But my idea can work with Monarchy. Feel free asking me on specifics.

With right wing it's generally a "as long as I get X" Conservatives want some degree of societal traditionalism. Theists want some degree of being able to worship and spread their faith. Libertarians want some degree of capitalism and free exchange of goods and ideas. Auth right wants some degree of centralization. Lib right wants some degree of freedom. 'center right' wants to just be left alone. So generally they can agree to give concessions as long as they get certain desires met. A monarchist would gladly fight for a Republican government to control his nation as long as the end result has certain goals met. Leftism isn't "pro" anything. Its mob thought. Sure they're "pro freedom and rainbows and happiness". And perhaps there's a government ideal people would want. But they often have utopian ideas. There's always another problem that society on the whole needs to stop our change. Right wingers are generally individualists. The most zealous priest can be fine preaching on his own, but a communist will always require a community to solve it's problems. So if there's more than one idea about right and wrong, both sides think they need society to fix it, than despite being similar their ideologies are naturally opposed to each other. So, bearing in mind that I'm tired as heck right now and this is my random rambling before i pass out... it's because leftism is collectivism.

X economic group has Y amount more than Z economic group and has to pay. X gender has Y advantages of Z gender and now Z gender must have more advantages. And the worst ones are the ones that say X group needs to unite AGAINST Z group because of Y reason. Modern leftism appeals to the lowest comment denominator as a descrininated group and demands greater and greater resources from those farther away from that group, and the farther they get the more they demand.

The answer recently occurred to me. You see, the left makes a moral pitch. This pitch is based in consequentialism if not utilitarianism, the idea that the proper course of action is based in its outcome. And people with ideas will disagree on the means and even the precise end goal. The right makes no such moral pitch, instead reacting to whatever the left is doing. The right is at least as ideologically diverse as the left, yet there's less infighting. The right is an alliance of convenience which at first glance should be less stable than one based on doing the right thing. However, it is not in the best interest of the group to fight itself whereas the right thing shouldn't matter if everyone else disagrees with it. We also see this behavior within religions. Christianity in particular has seen tons of infighting. First you had the breakup between the Orthodox Church of the east and the Catholic Church of the west. Next you had actual conflicts between Catholics and Protestants. And since then, even Protestants have struggled to get along. A big part of the American mythos is the people coming to the colonies to escape religious persecution, persecution by Protestants against other Protestants. Anglicans weren't so fond of the Quakers. On the flip side, Puritans set up their own colony at Plymouth Rock because in their eyes, the Anglicans were too tolerant. Atheists don't make a moral pitch. The only thing they all have in common is their lack of belief in God.

Secular humanism appeals to many atheists and that ideology also makes a moral pitch. Secular humanism also denies the weight and significance of religious or spiritual experience, the abstract and the unconscious collective, which I disagree with greatly. I respect atheists who mind their own business but many do not. Atheism was integral to the tyrannies of the 20th century such as Maoist China and the USSR, where religious minorities were persecuted heavily as a means of making the population totally faithful to the government, and obviously religion is a threat to that. The reason why religious people resist tyranny so much is because they believe in a power that even rulers and kings should be subordinate to. I'm a live and let live kind of dude, so either extreme is an L to me. Atheism can be just as damaging as religious faith. Imagine if atheists were the majority of humanity for most of our history, we'd have a reverse situation going on. Can't really claim to be less damaging inherently and be taken seriously when you haven't really been around for a very long time. Give it some time, atheism will also rack up some questionable stuff. In fact postmodernist atheistic society has already done quite a bit to us as a species

Its almost like when you have two big tent groups. One is based of the human arts and, building utopia, and ethical foundations. And the other is based on tradition, functionality, and practical systems. One group will inevitably begin arguing over whos vision and moral system is better. While the other can sit down and talk facts and find the best of everything, or at least appreciate that even if they don't agree, their systems would at least function.

This video is great, but you could have put a better example for the moral dilemma part. Most people, whether they are on the right or the left, would say sexual intercourse with a dead chicken is deplorable and something you shouldn’t do. I personally know many people who consider themselves leftists, and practically none would just say “stop judging them it’s in their own home”. While I’m not too familiar with such kinds of moral dilemmas, a better example would have been something like stances on abortion or state ties to religion, which are more likely to actually show you where someone stands politically.

It's due to want of purity. The slightest deviation from perfection is dangerous for things that must be pure. Sometimes this serves a real purpose. Imagine if surgeons weren't obsessed with purity in their operating rooms! Or if physicists and mathematicians didn't strive to get things perfectly right. Also, the difference between the current state of the world and the world leftists want is WAY greater than the current world vs what rightists want. If your ideals are very far away, for some reason people get obsessed about purity. Maybe this is because much more can go wrong on the road to actualisation of your ideals, due to the length of this road. So they have to make the starting point as pure as possible. Whereas rightists take existing structures as starting point, and often just want to expand or restore these structures. This is a less difficult and vulnerable project. To be fair, rightists have it easier in terms of getting their ideas to manifest. The world we inherited from our ancestors was extremely biased to the right wing. The last few hundred years, leftism started to appear, but before that, almost everything in history can be described as right wing. Even today the world is more like a rightist ideal than a leftist ideal.

btw 14:03 this division did actually happen within Nazism. Which is why you end up with Ernst Rohem being purged, as wella s a number of other revolutionaries within the NSDAP. It's also why you have a lot of hostility between the different British Fascist groups, multiple of them, and all attempts to create a unified front failed. Why? Because of ideological differences. The British Union of Fascist and the Imperial Fascist League were at eachother's throats throughout the 1930s. One was built on Italian Fascism while the other modeled itself off of German National Socialism. Neither could coexist. You see the same thing with the Austrian Nazi Party vs the Fatherland Front. Again at eachother's throats, to a point that the Fatherland Front's leader was assassinated, and most of it's leadership put into prison post Anschluss. Basically the only reason they ever got along in any way was become Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend. Which I'd argue is the only reason such groups even remotely tolerate each other even today. So to be honest it doesn't matter whether it's nationalist or internationalist, being both concepts of nationalism and internationalism are two sides of the same coin, just one encompuses the world while the other individual national identities. But for Marxist, the Proletariat is their National Identity. If you take the fact that marxism evolved radically differently in every nation it was installed in, and it's really no different than Fascism in it's internal hostility toward rival splinters within the ideology. Only internally within Socialist/Marxist Nation states does this violence erupt, just like it did for the Fascist in Britain, Germany, and Austria. When you have rivals of the same ideology form with modest if not minor variations of the same beliefs. Only reason Marxism seems more broadly effected is not surprisingly because it's so deeply rooted in our intelligentsia, and so much of that intelligentsia latches onto whatever one of those gillion splinters from seperate Marxist Nations that they like/agree with, after the fact... which is key. This leads to more variations, broader support, more discussion, and more division. I can promise if Fascism was the Status Quo ideology that intelligentsia loved and passed down to youths, the same kind of fighting/arguing/bickering would exist. As they argue which prophet's variation of the ideology was best or 'true' or "REAL." Instead Fascist have to put up with other groups because they hold so little political power, so few supporters.

There is always an implied punishment awaiting the breaking of rules and there is no way to remove that.

@@drunkenslav2334 There's always a "great book" to explain bullshit. They're usually written in the comfort and safety of an echo chamber by an author who has uninformed ideas about the way people ought to behave and the things they ought to believe instead of lived experiences with how people actually are. There's nothing wrong with being well-read, but it's not a replacement for being properly socialized to human nature. Utopia is a mythological concept and always will be, science is just a series of investigations with varied results which are documented by imperfect observers. Experience teaches individuals to factor these realities into their ideals, so they don't end up getting high on their own farts. Point is, if you want to convince someone of your point of view then don't just namedrop a reading recommendation like you're in a book club. Do your own heavy lifting and make a solid point, in your own words, backed up by your own observations and experiences. The "educate yourself"-retreat tactic doesn't work anymore. Come with receipts or don't come at all.

Your point about lefties having no unifying "greater force," such as cultural identity, religion, and ethnicity, are prone to unable to find common ground with fellow lefties, is an excellent statement. Humans are diverse in the ways they think - that is part of human nature, but their background usually shape who they are (on what group to they belong to); but once that background is erased, in favor of "unification through diversity," they're ideas almost become an oxymoron.
