What are you... in the views of others?

[Luís Henrique]

I suppose we have enough threads in which people tell others what tendency or current they are in, what they think, etc.

The idea here is to do something different: to reflect on how other people see our own political positions.

For instance:

Trotskyists usually see me as some kind of "centrist" in the tradition of the "second and a half" international.

Stalinists usually think of me as an "anarcho-Trot", unless they are in a "third period phase", when they will probably look at me as some kind of reformist.

Left communists see me as a reformist, I think...

... and reformists view me as a left communist, if they know the concept. If not, they will simply label me as a "radical", whatever that means. Reformists within the PT often have a hard time wrapping their minds over the fact that I am in the same party as them (some who are better informed, I suspect, do actively lie about that to their base, in order to avoid "contamination"). In a recent event of my union, a nice lady from their ranks politely asked me if I was a member of the PSOL - though the union is CUT affiliated.

Right wingers think I am crazy, I suppose... if they are trying to be civil, they will often try to use some less radical label towards me, as if "communist" was a disparaging term, and call me a social-democrat or confuse me with some kind of Liberation Theology types, or even, if they are abroad, with a Brazilian nationalist.

Oddly enough, people of all walks, left and right and centre, often take me for a Jew - which is something I can't fathom where from it comes. The weirdest thing ever was someone asking me whether I was a Jew at a cocktail, while I was munching some pork... Evidently, if right wingers hear or read me on the subject of Israel, they might think of me as an antisemite, as they often conflate antisemitism with antizionism.

Many people seem to take for granted that I adhere to Leninist organisational dogma, whether labeling me a Leninist or not.

So... what do other people think about your own political positions?

[El Oso Rojo]

In my LGBT student club at school, I am seen by some as an opportunist radical, he always have to bring up the issues.

My religious father see me as a lost soul who need jezuz.

My Best Friend- see me as a short sighted activist, and told me i would being a self righteous prick and keep on forgetten that not everybody can be political active like me.

My family that matters, think I am just going through a phase like they did.

Trotskyists and anarchists- I can't say, the ones in real life respect me and i respect them, and don't spend time trashing the PSL and I don't trash them.

I am probably the only ML that go to trotskyists and anarchists things.

[jookyle]

People I know "in real life" generally call me a Marxist or a Communist/Commie. One friend calls me a Leninist. He even did so before I would admit to myself I was one. I was very against a vanguard for a long time even though in the back of my head lay the inclination that one was needed.

[Permanent Revolutionary]

I usually just get called a communist (fine by me)
The people I associate with haven't got a working knowledge of Marxist tendencies so...

[ed miliband]

idk tbh. unless i know someone has a particular interest in politics, or politics similar to my own, i don't really talk about politics with people irl. most people just assume i'm somewhat left-wing i guess. one of my friends is an active labour / liberal-left type and he thinks i'm too radical and pessimistic, i also kinda offended another friend (pretty much the stereotypical north london liberal) when i said we'd have nothing in common politically. think she just assumed i was a guardian reading type or something.

on here i think people have stereotyped my views as being "yeah let's do nothing, just sit around and read" or something. a few weeks ago a number of posters did impressions of me along those lines. i guess it links with my labour friend's view of me being too pessimistic.

[ed miliband]

oh, and leader of the labour party obviously.

[black magick hustla]

numerous people, both in real life, and the internet, have argued i am "amoral" or "nihilistic" which disturbs me a bit, because i always considered myself some type of a humanist. i guess sometimes, especially when i am drinking lol, can sound a bit dismissive about what other people feel important. i do have somewhat of a dark and gloomy edge sometimes, but i wouldn't call that nihilism, more like some sort of melancholy or distress about how alienated i feel about everything that surrounds me. i think the whole "nihilism" thing sometimes happens because i am sometimes uncomfortable of discussing "positive demands" because that would pretty much reveal i am a fucking red and i sometimes don't feel comfortable enough to air that in certain circles, so instead i deconstruct positions.

however, i've heard the opposite extreme too. a lot of other people, tho, especially people who know me a bit better, not to toot my horn though, have commented i have a generous streak. i remember someone commenting to a friend (not to me) that probably my parents were very good and educated. another person said i was the most human person they have met. i don't know if i can believe that, because i sometimes feel very detached. maybe that is why i am a communist.

i think my parents don't completely understand my views but they respect my thoughts because they know i am not stupid.

overall, i think people around me generally perceive me as a bit anarchic and iconoclastic. i tend to not explain myself fully unless i am with other radical friends.

[Jimmie Higgins]

Politically I'm not sure what people think. People from other groups never try and poach me anymore :(

Socially people see me as sweet and reserved (I am!)... until one day they see someone cross me and I verbally hulk-out on them. You know those comebacks that you think of after some conflict - I usually think of it during a bad interaction and 60% of the time I say it even if I probably shouldn't.

I got in an argument with a drunk frat-boy on the subway. He could have beat the shit out of me but I told him to get the fuck off the train because it didn't make any stops at Dawson's Creek. The rest of the train laughed and he left embarrassed instead of punching me. Sometimes it works. In high school it tended not to work out so much because my mouth is quicker than my fists :lol:

[piet11111]

At times i am viewed as a somewhat loony radical but one that genuinely wants what is best for others.
Helpful understanding and overall a nice guy.

On another more right leaning forum there was a discussion what kind of government was preferred by the posters there and one particularly right wing guy was being put down by others that said something like "i would much rather live with piet11111 as supreme peoples dictator because then i wouldn't risk becoming homeless and starve to death and that is something your system of government would allow to happen"
That guy who was criticized was an anarcho capitalist but i was surprised to hear they would prefer what they think is the USSR 2.0 over unregulated capitalism.
I further explained my views and that no marxist wants to repeat what happened in the USSR and my desire for democratic communism but got the old "sounds nice on paper but blablabla human nature etc."

But i do notice that forum has been getting more leftist since the crisis and with the ageing of its members my ideas are getting more popular.
Especially when it comes about the expropriation of the means of production and the huge mountain of cash the banks are sitting on to benefit the whole of society instead of the super rich.

[Blake's Baby]

Most of my friends still consider me an anarchist, except for my friends who are anarchists, who think I'm a sell-out bourgie-bastard Leninist ... bastard. One of my friends who's known me a very long time regards me as a 'proper Marxist'.

Left Communism as an historical traditon hasn't really made very much impact in my social circle. I'm still professing pretty similar politics to when I was an anarchist, it just now has a different label. I don't really think for the most part that many of them care overmuch about the fine detail. Some who do know a little more refer to my involvement with 'the secret socialists' of the ICC and ICT.

[Raúl Duke]

a depressive, cynical person?
a nice person?
a hippie?
a leftist or commie; pinko scum?
an anti-capitalist?
Once in Occupy I was called something akin to anarchist hooligan just for saying that I support the 'diversity of tactics' stance, didn't think we should condemn corporate property destruction, etc; even though I didn't do any of those things.
Certain anarchists will say I'm an anarchist, perhaps some sort of Marxian anarchist. Obviously an anarcho-communist of some sort. While so-called "anarchists" :rolleyes: are confused as to why I'm vehemently anti-capitalist (markets, whatever) and then some of them have the gall to say I'm not an anarchist :lol:.
Some people think I'm a pretty cool dude with the weird views (situationist, etc inspired) on society.
Maybe the nihilistic communists think I'm one of them, somewhat...maybe.

[Omsk]

For non-political people, i am just like everyone else - the only thing different is that i like history and literature. Although some mean people would say i am 'uninteresting' . Blarghhg.

For Marxist-Leninists, i am a ML. No more no less, although many 'criticize' me because they think my politics are too rigid.

For Trots, i am the horrible horrible "State-ist monster! Satan!"

I don't talk or debate with anarchists too much,aside from knowing a couple of anarchists, and they usually tend to denounce my 'state-loving' . I usually ignore them, they don't have anything smart to say.

For Right-Wingers i am the "Traitor!" and "Bolshevist trash" and whatnot. They are also, not worth any attention.

I don't even know any Left-Comms who are open about it.

[MustCrushCapitalism]

For right wingers and most center-leftists I'm an immoral statist who adheres to an outdated ideology.

For anarchists I'm a statist.

For Trots I'm a Stalinist.

For leftcoms I'm a liberal reformist.

For Brezhnevites I'm dogmatic.

For Maoists I'm... not a Maoist.

For other MLs I'm too willing to work with who they deem as revisionists.

[Rocky Rococo]

I discovered my political identity by having it pointed out by better-educated others.

Back in the late 70s all I knew was I was some kind of radical socialist. As it happened, for a variety of odd reasons, there was an ISO chapter being formed in my nowhere hometown, that I ran across one day when they were street-selling papers. I hung around for a while, and even was a member for a few months. It was a great opportunity to do a lot of the basic reading in Marx, Engels, Lenin, Trotsky. In all of our discussions, though, I tended to end up being chastised for my anarchist and syndicalist "deviations". Now, at the time all I knew about anarcho-syndicalism was from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. However, after repeatedly hearing about my "deviations", I decided to do my own research on anarcho-syndicalism, and the reading proved the ISOers were right, as anarcho-syndicalism is a pretty close approximation of what I did believe in. There's been lots of ups and downs and backs and forths in politics, both general and my own, in the 35 years since, but if questioned as to my ultimate political ideal, it's still some form of social anarchism with a strong apprecation of syndicalist means.

So I realize this isn't exactly what the OP sought, but it's a case where what other people thought about my politics was more right than what I did.

[The Young Pioneer]

Since I began self-studying Russian in high school, I was called Commie by everyone way before I actually was. :lol:

Otherwise I'm just the weird, black sheep of the family.

[Jimmie Higgins]

@ Rocky Rococo (http://www.revleft.com/vb/member.php?u=29426)

LOL we're opposite-twins. My interest in syndicalism eventually led me to the ISO!

As an ISO member I guess the attidue I get from other tendencies is something like:

Anarchists - generally I think I am confusing to them. They either think I'm an anarchist because of my poltical positions and then are confused when I say I'm an ISO member because I didn't fit their idea of what my politics as a socialist are supposed to be; or if they know I'm in the ISO and so they don't even talk to me and then when they hear me make political arguments they think I'm just lieing because it doesn't fit what they think my politics really are.

Other Trots = I'm a liberal in their view. It depends on the kind of trot though. The more activist oriented groups are generally better - or at least are poltically savy enough not to burn bridges and keep their snide comments to themselves. The "we hold the ideological key to the universe" type groups tend to give the most shit though because they are small and aren't engaged in anything and so they think that a slightly bigger tiny group of radicals must be the CP or Menshiviks because they are the "true revoltuionaries!"

M-L = never actually run into many in real life. I don't know what they think - sometimes they are in a coalition but they either don't let anyone know their politics or they are really old and lecture the coalition in a completely abstract way. This is not a sectarian jab, this is my experience in California - not too many actual M-Ls and the RCP, which says it's Maoist tends to not interact with coalitions, they do their own thing.

[Mr. Natural]

I think of myself as a "red-green revolutionary," and I cannot discuss either my "red" or my "green" in the US. Americans can not and will not discuss capitalism. Attempts to engage the capitalist reality immediately label me an incomprehensible extremist.

As for my "green," which refers to applying life's organization to human organizations and revolutionary processes, this is beyond incomprehensible. It is unthinkable.

Revlefters and leftists in general find my analysis of capitalism acceptable until I contrast capitalism's organizational relations to those of life, and then I seem to be viewed as some sort of liberal--and incomprehensible.

Unfortunately, what is going on is not at all incomprehensible to me. Humanity has been mentally as well as physically enveloped thus captured by The System. Consequently, there is no revolutionary praxis in the US (or elsewhere) in opposition to capitalism's endgame; indeed, there is no current revolutionary organizing theory nor even any attempt to devise one (Tikkun?). The System rules.

So I am forced to sit on the sidelines and watch an imprisoned, dispirited, degraded human species destroy itself through the instrument of its Frankenstein monster, capitalism. This is way beyond woeful. This is really, really fucked up.

[Conscript]

Idk about other tendencies, but liberals call me an anarchist.

Then again liberals are fucking dumb.

[Red Rabbit]

Not sure what other tendencies view me, other than Stalinists probably hate me lol. :)

However, I have been called "fag", "queer", "sicko", "liberal" and "worthless bum" by many right-wingers.

[Rafiq]

In all honesty I really don't give a shit

[Trap Queen Voxxy]

A pirate who rationalizes his insanity under the banner of Anarchism.

[Robocommie]

Every tendency views me as a beautiful fairy princess. Because I am.

[Os Cangaceiros]

I think most everyday people just view me as a relatively normal populist who every once in a while cheerfully announces his disappointment that bodies of the wealthy and powerful aren't floating face-down in rivers, etc. That's pretty normal up here, though, a lot of people will tell you how their dream is to see all of Congress machine-gunned down in front of the capitol and similarly inflammatory statements. The only problem is that it's usually followed by "THEN we could get this country back on track!" :rolleyes:

[Pretty Flaco]

what do they see? a straight up motherfucker

[human strike]

I just generally get called an anarchist by everyone...

[MarxSchmarx]

On more than one occasion people have accused me of being a right-winger, an imperialist, and a reactionary.

I've long since learned to keep politics out of 98% to 99% of my conversations with people. The problem is on the rare occasion I do get the sense that it is safe to speak of politics and someone brings it up, it is very often goes something like this:

They: "The (insert company/police/class/etc..) are so rapacious."
Me: "It is in the nature of capitalists to be acquisitive and vindictive. That is how they operate, that is how they make their livelihood."
They: "I think I heard a person called an 'Objectivist' making that claim once. They were a real douche. Obviously you don't care about the Dalai Lama and ozones and my iphone."

I have hardly ever in real life come across a person who has an inkling that there are such things as Trotskyists and Naxalites and anarcho-syndalists and what not. So I doubt apart from the "you're just really really liberal" line, I don't think much of anybody has much of any opinions about my political views. I suspect this is the case for the vast majority of other leftists.

[Comrade Jandar]

I think most people who have inkling of my politics think I'm some stuck-up little prick who's foray into communism is an intellectual exercise at best or a desperate attempt to stir up my hopelessly boring white, middle-class, suburban existence. I would say they're half-right.

[Crux]

Probably as a well meaning radical, to reformists anyway. Some people in the left scene have an extremely sectarian view of the group I am in, but I generally play well with people IRL be they anarchos, reformists or ml's. I'm the token trot at the anarchist hang out. If the argument comes up though I don't back down. I have been called a "leninist ****" by a couple of faux autonome reformists but I consider it a badge of honour. Not to toot my own horn or anything but some regard me as well read. But I guess even before I got into politics I've had this book-nerd thing going on. Oh and the nazi's consider me "commie scum". Of course. Oh and to the general public, probabl a combination of well-meaning and well-read hopefully going from the former to the later. In my activism I talk to people alot. To some I'll always be "naive"/"commie scum" though depending on their persuation. And to my comrades I am probably not taking an as leading role in the local work as I should be, being the most senior member here in terms of how long I've been active. But hey, I'm not lazy I just have ADD. A leading comrade once told me if I stepped up my activism I could probably be on the NC. Next to "how did you become such a great kisser?" that's probably one of the nicest things anyone has said to me. So you know I'm cadre.

[The Douche]

I was once called a "political bully" by a professor, I think it was relatively accurate.

[Omsk]

I forgot to mention - local ML's hate me, they think my views are too 'sectarian' and 'rigid'.

[Nikolay]

My right-wing friends call me crazy. My liberal friends also think I'm crazy and call me a commie. Fine by me. :)

Though, I'm usually called a radical nut by most people I talk to.

[Le Socialiste]

While I've never really cared, it is interesting to see how my politics have been interpreted by others...

My parents fear that I'm an advocate for armed insurrection, despite all evidence to the contrary.

My friends simply label me a socialist, but this has more to do with their lack of an in-depth understanding of different tendencies than anything else. That, and they don't fully understand what socialism actually is (whatever it is, they reason, I must believe in it).

Anarchists consider me a variety of things, though their accusations are typically lacking in evidence. I've been (in)directly called a reformist, collaborationist, liberal, and traitor, despite the fact that I hold positions similar to theirs. I can identify with Jimmy's statement, since many anarchists have a hard time reconciling my politics with my membership in the ISO. It confuses them, I think. :lol:

Trots, Leninists, and others in that sphere think I'm just confused. ;)

I'm basically like James Bond 2.0. Women love me, men respect me. I go across the globe fighting bad guys and drinking liquor. I can even do a cartwheel. In short, I am the baddest ass ever. And if you disagree, you'll regret it when you see me cartwheeling down the street towards you with two guns ready to perform some deconstructive surgery.

Oh wait no, I'm the loner who sits at home furiously waxing his carrot to pictures of Marx's beard.

Most An-Coms and my fellow Wobblies tend to think I'm an Insurrectionist.
Mainstream Feminists think I'm an attention-vying pig. It is apparently inconceivable to be a Masculist AND a Feminist.
My friends don't really care about politics. They're Liberals and tend to respect my views.
My family just ignores me or blocks their ears when I talk politics because they know they can't debate me.
Most of my fellow Ásatrúar are horrified that I support universal healthcare, never mind that I'm a Commie, except the few other atheistic ones who don't really give a shit.
Environmentalists call me a Radical and don't like associating with me.
Stalinists have called me an Anarcho-Trot. Lolwut.
Marxists and MLs call me Revisionist for supporting what reforms we can get while we work on the Revolution.
Maoists think I'm weird for an Anarchist.
I get a lot of disrespect from my fellow RevLefters for being a fan of MRN.
Many Transfolk don't like me because of my lack of gender.
I've never met a Trotskyist, so I can't say what they think of me.

[#FF0000]

Mainstream Feminists think I'm an attention-vying pig. It is apparently inconceivable to be a Masculist AND a Feminist.

it sure is if you know what those words mean.

but yeah people who know me pretty well think I'm some kind of nihilist and anarchist or something. People who know my politics but don't know me well just think 'communist', whatever that might mean to them.

Overall folks think i'm just a big ol' contrarian and a gadfly.

The only characterization that really bothers me was my one friend telling me that I'm 'an idealist' and sort of implied something about a 'disconnect from actual working people' which actually made me livid considering I've held several jobs while she's held none and her family literally stacks gold bars to the ceiling.

I'm not bitter there though.

[Pretty Flaco]

sometimes people ask me if im high cus im usually real chill about things and apparently thats what my face looks like. but i literally havent smoked in so long. stuck up middle class fucks say i seem "sketch"

uh no. I'm a feminist. I am not a masculinist and would never use that term. I suppose there are, some, merits in intersectionalism and queer theory though.
But what I ,and I think most people, associate when I hear masculinism is, at best, clueless liberals at worst open reactionaries, and to be honest that's a sliding scale.

My mom thinks im a communist.

M-Ls call me a dirty anarchist.

Some anarchists think im an individualist anarchist while others call me other for my marxist background and ideas, I often find my self to be the "token marxist" of sorts although nobody ever said this.

A young female ex-comrade once called me "the conservative one" of our crew, not sure why... because I have one long-term partner and don't live collectively, i dunno

[X5N]

I don't know enough radicals to really evaluate what people think of me as.

But my parents probably think I'm some silly youngster who's going to grow out of everything and get married and have kids and stay in the shithole that is the suburbs of L.A. and not change my name, and such.

[NoOneIsIllegal]

To some other anarchists, I've been called a "Marxist" or at least a "weird anarchist." Probably because I don't shy away from terms like communism, and dictatorship of the proletariat.

To some M-L's, it doesn't matter what I say: once they find out I'm an anarcho-syndicalist, I'm immediately deemed a "individualistic liberal" - haha.

To my dad, I'm simply a "little commie" :cool:

[Tim Finnegan]

Most people probably think I'm some sort of anarchist whose unusually keen on Marx Those who know me a little better would probably identify me as some sort of ultra-left thing, which admittedly is about as fine a point as I could put on it meself, and might on occasion accuse me of nihilism because, no, I'm not going to vote for the Greens. My parents probably think I'm in the SWP, nobody at work is aware that I have any politics whatsoever, and my girlfriend thinks that I really don't have any politics, I just like to complain a lot.

To Trots, anarchists, and so on, I'm some sort of hopelessly deterministic leftcom. To leftcoms, I'm some sort of hopelessly idealistic anarcho-Marxist. To Rafiq, I am of course both.

Never mind the aliens and my other stuff there is a core to me which I feel is ignored no matter where I'm at or who's the audience. I don't really feel like a person most days more an intimidating force of hysterical kindness that others have to deal with.

Most people I interact with know absolutely nothing about politics. Mention the terms anarchist, socialist or communist and they'll just stare blankly.

As a result, most people I know see me as a chronic contrarian who argues with everything they say just for the sake of it - they don't associate it with any consistent political position.
