Description
I've realized over the months on how unified the Third Position Crowd is compared to the Far-Left Crowd now-a-days. It really is amusing to see Social Democrats, Anarchists, and Communists get along, until Fascism leaves, then they go at each other as foes. I typically don't see that with Fascists, Falangists, & National Socialists, as they tend to get along. I know Fascists and National Socialists have fought in the past (ie. Fatherland Front vs NSDAP), but it never caused a permanent hostility between the two ideologies.Yes, the last group at the bottom is a peace sign, I intended it to represent the pacifists.

Neo-reactionaries, "regular" fascists, and alt-righters all have their internal problems. American Renaissance has its' issues between white nationalists who don't like jews, and those who consider jews as white.
Look around on some race dicussion forums, you see all the butthurt

National socialism here in Sweden is mostly far-left but still has some far-right opinions

For me that's somewhat the beauty of Third Position, it takes elements from both the Far-Left & Far-Right, granted it's not uncommon for some self-proclaimed Third Positionists to be Far-Right rather than Third Positionist.

I've noticed this too, even years ago. The schism even between varying forms of Communism itself demonstrates the staggering disunity because of perceived lack of common ground. So many Maoists claim that Kruschev-inspired commies are "revisionists" Hoxhaists consistently refer to every other left-wing ideology as a form of Fascism. Social Democrats and Democratic Socialists often can't stand Marxist-Leninists, or its variations, nor Anarchism. With several Social-Democratic governments actually going so far as to assist in warfare against Communists, no matter how radical their brand of Socialism is.
The Social Democrats call the Communists radicals, the Communists call the Social Democrats capitalists, the Anarchists call both statist capitalists, and the standard classical Socialists call all three one of the varying above insults.

I think the problem lies in that leftist ideologies really are different from each other. Social democrats and democratic socialists are more accepting of capitalism, whereas socialism is "the group above the individual" with an economic mix, communism calls for full state control with no capitalism, and anarchism just wants little to no federal government. We can't get along because we are fundamentally different.
I can tell you from my perspective as a social democrat that I wouldn't want to live in a communistic, anarchist, or even pure socialist society.

The Rose is Social Democracy and the Red Star is Socialism I think.

Well the Soviets did include the Red Star along the Sickle and Hammer. Heck Communism is a type of socialism. Also Communism and Socialism do share symbols however the red star is socialist primarily while the hammer and sickle is primarily communist.

Usually people like us are really nice and we try to keep the tension down. It's like how some of us are the 'Voice of Reason' to a situation, while we see the Extreme Far-Left fighting with each other on their own ideology on how one's version is better than another. I've seen it on photos, in groups, etc. while the Far-Right are the total opposite. We almost always get along here and have no problem if we got different views.
