    This screams, still in high school, maybe very early college, and unaware of how undeveloped their understanding of political economy is. Like, they’ve got enough of a moral compass to understand that equitable distribution of wealth and property is good, but zero sense of class struggle or the use of systems to maintain that inequality. I don’t think they get that the people they want to ask very nicely to share their wealth are the same ones that run those systems to ensure they get to sit on their piles of wealth.

    It’s possible they could become a proper leftist but not without getting some basic theory into them first.

    What kind of leftist I am? What a loaded question

    You should not even ask the question “what kind of socialist am I?”

    but I also believe in freedom of speech

    I don’t really think it makes sense to put gender ethics along political lines

    What is this, wrecker bingo?

      Open source is genuinely a good thing though. Let’s not let the libs have all the fun with that.
