Capitalism is the antithesis of leftism. Oppressing the bigots and capitalists is the essence of leftism.

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Authoritarianism is not acceptable regardless of what your ideology is, and goes against everything actual leftists stand for. People like you are no better than the capitalists and fascists you claim to be against.

Funny you would say that, because by calling for the left to neuter its ability to liberate the working class, you're no better than the capitalists and fascists you don't even claim to be against.

The actual leftists will not sit down and let the bourgeoisie continue to oppress people just because it's "authoritarian" to stop them. I really wonder what you think the left is. If you want a hint, it's not Hillary Clinton.
