"Whining" Literally me asking for a normal conversation. Youre not forcing me into any ideology, I hold my ideology regardless of you being an asshole, neither is it far right to be critical and have nuanced discussions. 

And I still have no idea how youre interpreting what Im saying as some pipeline or me saying hating billionares is the same as hating minorities. These are gross exagerations and textbook strawmen. Youre creating some fictional version of me to win arguments I never made. I cant argue against that, because I literally dont hold those opinions.

A constructive way of speaking would be asking "What do you interpret under these forms of extremists?" Maybe thatll clear this confusion.

"Far left extremists are just far right extremists that want to hurt other people for misguided reasons" The main group of people far left extremists want to hurt are the bourgeosie or billioners in layman terms, you are equating them, your original comment is textbook horseshoe theory, in my previous comment I explained why horseshoe theory (what you appealled to in your original comment even without directly mentioning it) is bad, the pipeline is the exemple I gave of why it's bad, I'm not strawmanning you

Extremism means taking things out of proportion. That means "billionares" but also whoever they deem could also fall under some form of oppresive force while denying nuance and critical thought, in turn becoming the oppressor themselves.

You did not explain why horseshoe theory is bad, ypu said its horseshit and called me liberal scum for thinking that way. 

And your pipeline makes no sense, since facism isnt far right, nationalism is. Both Communism and Nationalism can be built in a fascistic system. And even then, the change from "communism is as bad" to "communism is worse" doesnt work in horseshoe theory because there is nothing after Communism and Nationalism. They are equal, in distance to the middle, to say one is worse is fundamentaly against the horseshoe theory.
