>finally look up what the fuck is this horseshoe theory that /pol/ keeps babbling about
>it essentially states that both left and right political extremes use similar tactics and methods of maintaining their power and enforcing their ideologies
>alright
>mfw somehow /pol/ and co. interprets this as right=left ideologically and keeps making bad MS paint pictures and 20+ min YouTube videos about how it's wrong
Am I missing something?
Probably

fascism and communism are very close in their ideologies, their methodology and the societies they result in
Horseshoe theory is retarded. It boils down complex and varying issues into: 'anything except pacifism is bad m'kay'. Total false dichotomy. Go ahead and convince me otherwise.

No it doesn't you twit. Where did you even get that idea?

Who the fuck did tell you this on pol? Redditfags almost exclusively use this to discard pol. Ive never seen horseshoe theory taken seriously on pol

Yes, the link to the appropriate board for contemporary political discussion.
Oh pee here.

These niggers here are my point. As far as I understand, all this theory states is that the more extreme political discourse becomes, despite clear ideological differences between left and right, increasingly similar methods are employed by both, i.e. labor camps, authoritarianism etc.
How the fuck do you people interpret this as "both left and right are the same lol"? It's like you purposefully misunderstand the true meaning of this seemingly simple concept and then get mad about it.

We don't have one, /pol/ is a meme board at this point.
>>2914235
Too bad, turning everywhere else into a meme board because the relevant board is shit isn't a valid solution.

Are there really people who oversimplify it this far? The point is that, regardless of whether the rulers are SJWs or PUAs, the result for the common man is authoritarianism and oppression.
