@cy@mstdn.io Where and when did I belittle the pronounds, lets be specific if you are accusing me (how else could I learn from it let alone defend?)
Capitalism, yes, I promote it. I also have mentioned many times that all of europe is capitalist and have also said many times **pure** capitalism doesnt work much like **pure** communism doesnt work. But there is no doubt that I much prefer capitalism over communism, that doesnt make me a right winger, or a left winger however.
I also have **never** said the extreme right wingers are **justified**. I may have at times pointed out the cycle of cause and effect where the actions of the left drives the right to be more extreme **and** the actions of the right drive the left to their extremism as well.
Overall I lean left, not right and have covered why many times. If the best you have to go on is the posting of that meme (which does not embody the points you say in the least and criticizes both extremes) then yea, I'd stick with bonkers. But thats an inflamatory phrasing so id rather argue the points.

Honestly what i suspect might be the case is that you are perhaps on the more extreme end of left and thus view moderate left people as being on the right erroneously. Take the meme you linked, it cleary criticizes the racism of the extreme left and the extreme right promoting a neutral position instead. But because you disagree with the rampant racism illustrated on the left, and instead view it as antiracism (as id expect from the more devout left wingers) you fail to see an explicitly centrist view as centrist and instead see moderates as the right. Its a very common mindset honestly.
Obviously i'm a bit more biased towards Josiah Warren.
Then there's Engels' Scientific Socialist split which has it's more authoritarian tendencies. Engels and his father were industrialists as well.
