The left starts at anti-capitalism. Anything other than that is right wing
Left and right are relative to the actual political spectrum of the subject. There are different approaches to anticapitalism, centrist on the left-wing wants to implement social politics to improve welfare, this doesn't make it socialists.
Your notion is a very post modernist ideology of absolute relativism, which is an idealist unscientific notion. Socialism starts at anti-capitalism. Anything pro-capitalist is not left wing because everything falls under liberalism which is not a left wing ideology.
That's not what I wrote but hey, nice sofism here.
They're not saying that's what you wrote, the saying that what you wrote was incorrect and they're right
Yay, that's seems like the straw man fallacy
Lol no, you're just wrong
