No? I'm an ML and I live in a capitalist country. Further, liberals are absolutely worse than anarchists.

    Where are progressives on that scale? Oh, and do fascists, I definitely want to know how a fascist stacks up against a liberal!

    "Progressive" doesn't really mean anything beyond "left of establishment democrats." They range from liberal to socialist. Fascists are a twin of liberalism, worse but fundamentally connected.

    If you're not anti capitalist and anti bourgeois democracy even if you're "progressive" you're just a flavour of liberal. Fascists are obviously worse than liberals although they tend to agree on a surprising amount of things when push comes to shove unfortunately. Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds is a widespread phrase for a reason.

    I'll stand corrected on the anarchist comment. But if one lives in a capitalist country, one inevitably supports capitalism, right? Even if it's against their will.

    This sounds more and more like Original Sin.
