Leftism
Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

Not knowing shit about american media, I'm both surprised and disturbed how much worse it still seems to get after Fox News.
In reality, everything from the New York Times rightward should actually be stretched about one section over to the right. There are very few publications that are legitimately in the "skews right" camp these days; there's just no money in it. Outlets in that section are vilified by right wingers for being leftists (even though they're not) and they're ignored by the left for being conservative partisans (which is accurate).
That said, yes; Fox, having changed very little about their programming, is now one of the least partisan right-wing sources. (Even though they're incredibly right-wing.) The Overton Window has shifted drastically.
Fox News should be way further down on the bottom right.
Compared to the other stuff on there, I wouldn't say so unless they move everything in the neighborhood of Daily Wire as well. It really does get that much worse.
