Ian Welsh:

In the modern world there are three main ideological groupings. Broadly the right, the left, and liberals/neoliberals. These don’t appear on a line, they’re a triangle and each has something in common with the others. The left, generally speaking, is anti-war, for example, and so are parts of the right, especially paleocons. Liberals are very identity politics focused and the left has sympathy for that, but isn’t as dedicated to it. The left’s primary focus is on economic issues and relationships and the relationship to IP is more of “of course everyone should be treated equally.”

By Welsh’s definition, I’m on the left. I’m not identity-politics focused but I do strongly believe that everyone should be treated equally.

Also:

Left wingers are the opposition to capitalism. The most extreme versions want an end to it entirely, the moderate versions want it under firm control, made to contribute to mass prosperity, not turned to produce billionaires.

I’m most definitely moderate-left on capitalism. Markets are excellent servants but cruel, wicked masters. Also, capitalism is often in opposition to free markets.
