why are leftists in america considered communists?

[KingScorpio]

if you look at democrats and their russia hatred, you think they are some kind of nazis or racists,

why do they hate people because they live in a different part of the world, is cnn and the american "left" insane?

or is the american left simply the right, because americans confuse left with right?

Focusing attention on the "Foreign Threat" and the "Evil Foreign Governments" has always been a way of deflecting attention from local evils and local problems.

There's a distinction between most liberals and most leftist. Leftists are extreme progressives that adopted their own version of liberalism into a hard left socialist/communism flex. Depending on the person, they'll argue for extreme policies that have no basis in reality and included in this is an extreme hatred for Russia because they feel Trump colluded with Russia and that Trump's is a Russian spy. Of course, the claim is unfounded as proven by the Special Counsel investigation but regardless, leftists will portray their disdain for Putin by hating Russia and blaming any politician that they disagree with as being a Russian stooge, regardless of what party that politician is from. Recent example is Tulsi Gabbard, a democrat who is being accused of being a Russian asset because she did not vote for the impeachment of Trump.

There are valid reasons that Russia is not a country that the U.S. supports. Both this administration and the last administration did not recognize Russia as an ally but it's clear many people on the left are using Russia as a scapegoat for their own problems.

Because the US establishment sees no difference between democracy and democratorship.

All of America hates Russia to some extent. Democrats just voice that now to hide their incapability.
Most of US political leaders have shown an external enemy that is the cause of all problems in the nation.
It's not that there are no leftist in Republican or Democrats, but the word itself is a taboo to speak.
US is becoming more and more hypocrite under the media curtain. They are turning themselves into a semi-closed society for ideas.

Not true at all. I would say it is accurate that most Americans don't feel one way or another about Russia. Most Americans don't concern themselves with international affairs. You wouldn't get this impression from our media, but normal folks really aren't concerned with such things. I personally think Russia could be an important ally in keeping China in check, but unfortunately there has been a lot of unnecessary antagonism towards Russia from US leadership. I would wager this is in an effort to keep the US and RU from aligning efforts against globalist and internationalist forces. The US and Russia actually share quite a bit of common culture, so of course the strategy is divide and conquer.

I think that this problem exist in all over the world.
People consider leftists as communists in every country of the world. And this happens due to the fact that communists are the "hardcore" leftists with the most radical left ideas.

If you lump all democrats together, you are missing it. People are all individuals. If they say that they ascribe to a democrat idealism, they don't really know what they are talking about.

The reasons why there is hatred are:
1. people think they are right;
2. People don't want to take part of what is wrong;
3. People think that communist people ascribe to communism, but nobody except the leaders ascribe to communism;
4. Only democrat leaders ascribe to hatred, and they do it for money, same as communist leaders;
5. Generally, the people are sheep, being led by the leaders who promise them peace if they follow their leaders, but destruction if they oppose their leaders.

You don't realize that the people of Russia, back in the '50s and '60s, were praying that the eyes of the American people would be opened to the above points. Since then, this praying Russian population has almost completely died off, so the current Russian people think that the American people are against them, the Russian people. What the American people are against is the tenets of Communism, not the Russian people who are enslaved by it.

The crazy fact is that the American people are allowing themselves to be legally enslaved by Communism more and more. The Trump impeachment shows this. Any American - including myself - who was against the impeachment, could take Pelosi or Schiff to court, man-to-man, for damages done by them to the true tenets of freedom. But us chickens would rather blab about the evils of Communism... rather than doing what will change things, legally.

So, I can't blame you for not being free. You don't even see what it is all about.

Leftist remind me communists mainly because of the identity politics. You just pick your "class" and turn everything into "opressor-victim" narrative

thats because you accept the financial dictatorship around you or you are simply rich enough to not care about it, or not being ambitious enough to seek that.

or you trust in it and feel comfortable in it and you are seeking to grow in it.

others might feel discriminated becaue they simply hate the fact that they can't invest. at all.
