   I'm so glad I abandoned the usage of the whole left/right political compass.

   Those terminologies never help much at all.

   I'm okay describing myself an Anarchist; with many good adjectives or no adjectives for accurate description & that I accept that I'm a multi-faceted person, who wants to have as much autonomy to just chill as possible & I still not call myself a "leftist."

   I mean the fact that labels like "authoritarian left" & "anti-authoritarian right" exist are absurd since both are oxymorons that the current political compass is way too broad & contradictory to make any lick sense. Calling yourself a "leftist" means nothing to me, if you still support the nation-states & fascists because "they are working-class too" bullshit. Again; a class traitor is still a class traitor, you either help us or just let us mind our business.

   Thats all I gotta say, just my two-cents.

     Much respect.

     I still call myself a "Leftist" because for me personally it's still the best means of identifying my core economic and social beliefs. I'm closer to a Paul Sweezy Marxist on economics, but my sexual liberatory and sex+/pro sex work politics would probably disqualify me in particular quarters due to vestiges of Left Puritanism. Hence, my invention of "MarXXXist".

     But, otherwise, antiracism, anti-misogyny, and anticapitalism is my core foundation.
