Yes, just because nazis called themselves “national socialists” didn’t actually make them socialists in any shape or form.
In which case I would still stress the importance of understanding what the fuck “liberal” actually means

Well, they were at least partially successful, then. If you’re really “liberal” then you believe in at least some parts of capitalism and think thay the “bad” parts can be “fixed”.
If you’re leaning towards ancom then why tf are you looking at government of any form through rose coloured glasses. Nordic governments being more ““democratic”” than Putin’s or Xi’s governments doesn’t make them “decent”. They’re still structured after capitalism, they’re just better at exporting their exploitation.
The nordic model is a hybrid of social democracy (liberal, not socialist) and corporatism (definitely not socialist).
All forms of socialism, from anarchism / libertarian socialism to democratic socialism to marxism-leninism, are fundamentally anti-capitalist. The sooner you get this the sooner you’ll stop making a fool of yourself.

Agreeing that capitalism sucks ≠ “fraternising”, though. Do you expect anarchists and other sorts of libertarian socialists to start shilling capitalism because “tankies” have laid claim to communism or smthn? Lol
Sup, Comrade Spood (⌐■‿■)
No, you’re right. Anarchism is the way (:
Too many anarchist/commune types consider the authoritarians to be their allies because they also hate the capitalists, right up until the point they’re next on the list of undesirables destined for the wall
Lol we’re under no such illusions. Just because you see us agreeing on capitalist critiques, which I suppose makes you uncomfortable, doesn’t mean we agree on what to do about capitalism.
What exactly makes it “far left”?
Uncorrupt governments? No, far left (at least an anarchist far left) is realising that that’s a pipedream.
A “healthy middle class”? Lol, leftism is all about eradicating the class system entirely, it’s one of the biggest reasons liberals aren’t leftist.
Yeah it’s so tone deaf.
Imagine thinking inequality is fine as long as the petite bourgeoisie is satisfied -_-
All heirarchies are unjustified.
I’d look at foss licenses more as tools of defence against (and within) the current system/context than “rules” that serve to enforce some kind of anti-capitalist “heirarchy”.
