Either way, I think it's a nitpick to complain about. I've written a decent amount of Lua and there's only been a handful of times where 1-indexing was even relevant to me.

Like I said to another comment, I thought we were discussion the modern right wing and left wing movements happening now, I'm not sure why we're bringing up previous communist movements. Seems irrelevant to my comment.

I'm not sure why you're bringing up historical movements, seems irrelevant to my response.

Fascists, on the other hand are "for our people", and the "our people" bit often means White, rich, me and mine type thing. A good example is how the American right-wing often talks about immigration. They'll talk about a mythical "good immigrant" from a south American country, we can let them in because they're "one of the good ones". Not like those other brown people, of course.

But the majority aren't much more to the left of bernie sanders, and the minority that is are often too busy cooking meals for the unhoused, organising clothing drives, and trying to do harm reduction in our local communities.

It's more complicated, obviously, but most lefty types nowadays just want everyone to be fed and housed.
