    China? Khmer Rouge in Cambodia?

    I know the horseshoe theory is problematic, but it’s fact that some nominally “left” groups in practice resemble the “far right”; today’s China specially in practice resembles more Nazism than Communism.

      I don’t consider China to be very left. It’s a capitalist country. The same goes for other state-capitalist projects.

      While there are authoritarian leftists, I think it’s wrong to act as if these where the only part of the so-called “far left”. How many genocides were committed by anarchists?
