Changing the implementation of capitalism or switching to socialism or another economic system often has links for male advocacy. Think of the creation of unions, worker safety, ~~Atlanta~~ Memphis sanitation workers strike, that sort of stuff. This is left wing.

Similarly, upending the criminal justice system in America is inherently left wing.

Anti-war sentiment and veteran support is left wing too.

Other male advocacy may not be inherently left wing nor involve left/right dichotomy but we can still discuss those here, like ending forced circumcision. Even then I wouldn't be surprised is leftwing politics can come into play.

Other times it may not be inherently left wing but leftwing politics still strongly come into play. Ending forced paternity isn't inherently left wing but leftwing politics can be in a greater reform of the system, which I detail here.

> I like the r/MensRights/ channel.. personally.

There are too many rant and low effort posts there, the sub is really big so kinda hard to moderate

> Do you find that the left is suitable to dealing with the issues of men and boys given the track record of the left,

There is a lot of misandry coming from mainstream left wing figures but same goes for right wing too, at least left helps male issues indirectly sometimes,

> currently, given how the far-left seem to be governing the left through .. well.. interesting methodologies.

I wouldnt really agree with that to be honest, far-left for me would mean socialists, anarchists, communists etc. what we have in west is more like liberals with identity politcs especially under the influence of feminism. Left and feminism is not inseparable, I don't even consider feminism as a progressive ideology.

Perhaps the their inability to moderate is the very reason they're great? They do moderate, don't get me wrong. A buddy of mine went on a rant on another channel and that was enough for him to get permanently banned. So there is moderation there.. It happened really quickly even. The explanation: Out of fear, they had to make that move because otherwise they might get cancelled on Reddit.. Moderation exists on that platform.

I find that the misandry on the left be very different from misandry on the left. Misandry on the right is all about "for king and country" kind of a thing.. where on the left it's mostly about "Either you adhere to your concepts of misandry or you're fascist, nazi, man who hates women, homo-phope, trans-phope etc.."

You honestly don't think the whole anarchist, socialist and communist/marxist themes exist in the west? I mean all we need to point out is Antifa, anti fascists that act very much like fascists to undermine that concept. We of course have traditional leftist in the west, as they are difficult to nullify due to popularity, such as Bill Maher. I love Bill Maher. He's basically what has kept sanity going, in the west, for a long time. It's very difficult to take away pillars but they are still based on a capitalistic grounds. He was tackled and taken down, back in the days, for his views but, for some reason, he can't be taken down, or won't be taken, today. We're fighting a completely different social war now than we were in the early 2000s..
