Changes in nomenclture greatly reduced the likelyhood that observers would see negative potential of the ideas and agendas being put forth...
no•men•cla•ture:
-the names or terms comprising a set or system.
Personally I see the thing itself being done, or where the thing being strived for will lead and determine it good or bad. But many tie it to right or left, so lets get into what that means.
Of course I do realize that in order to talk about agendas, and things people have on common in their beliefs there need to be terms that over arch fior example simply to have the conversation. That is where generally I sometimes use left or right for example.[This message has been edited by 2.5 (edited 03-14-2022).]

For example, why does Antifa act so fascist?

I'm not sure exactly your point, but BLM and Antifa are the alt-left as both are believers in Marxism and Communism.
And the scale above is pretty accurate in that if Conservatives want less government and more personal responsibility, then moving further right you get NO government and ALL personal responsibility (i.e. you are on your own like caveman days). Calling Fascists "alt-right" is just about stupid but par for the course with propaganda.

I see what you are saying.
Some say that the left/right continuum eventually folds back on itself. Instead of an infinite line extending out in each direction, it is a circle.
In the middle you have moderates, while on the edges you have extremists.
Centrist: “I see merit in both philosophies”
Conservative: “Each is endowed with unalienable rights”
Libertarian: “You do you. I’ll do me.”
Anarchist: “To hell with you. I’m doing me.”
Fascist: “You must do me. Bake me a cake.”
Communist: “From each according to his means. We must all contribute to the cake.”
Democrat: “Everybody gets a cake.”
Moderate: “I like cake.”
Extremists on both ends have lost sight of their principles and fight only for personal gain.
I'm sure someone will be along shortly to "correct" me. This is my perspective. You do you.

Moderates are the largest problem we face. They are Complicity Theorists. What ever the media declares as the norm, they support. Because it's group think.
Libertarians are just dreamers that don't want to grow up.
