That makes sense, one for each of them, and two to span their differences whilst keeping the most extreme differences furthest apart (so 5 all up). Typical lefties, reproducing the parliamentary liberalism that society is currently based on.
I suspect if you put three conservatives in a room you’d either get one dead, one too scared to talk, and one covered in blood… Or, three far right loonies calling for the death of all gay people, who all just had their first gay experience and plan to keep that fact secret.
Conservatives, they’ll either kill something or fuck it, and either way they’re gonna lie about it later.
True, but there are there differing approaches to socialism: MLs want authoritarian socialism (government runs everything), while Democratic Socialists usually want a hybrid of market socialism (co-ops) and government run socialism for needs that free market co-ops cannot address. And then there are libertarian socialists who want only worker owned co-ops and syndicates. Finally, we have SocDems that want indirect socialism where strong regulations and labor protections try to achieve socialist goals through capitalism.
Oh, so is my syndicalist ass a centrist? What about my mutualist wife? There’s the MLs vs the MLMs (who almost nuked each other). We managed to form two separate armies in most socialist revolutions
There’s a “joke” that if you put 3 leftists in a room, out comes 5 political parties.
People’s front of Judea or gtfo
Judean People’s Front for life!
Splitters!
Oh, it will be for life all right…

No one hates extremists more than other extremists. Because they cannot decide on what they hate the most
Mostly that works because what the establishment thinks of as left is really centralist. Real leftists would advocate for socialism.
Of course the US goes even further into the insane category by basically just having everyone be right-wing with different flavors.

There’s nothing more leftist than saying other leftists aren’t real leftists. Congratulations.
