  • Most definitions of social media are some form of "sharing content for the purpose of socializing in a public manner". I wouldn't think having a real life identity linked to your account would be a requirement for a social network. Why wouldn't reddit, lemmy, or even an old school forum be considered social media? You're sharing and discussing content on a community platform. I dunno, just something I've been thinking about recently as I'm using lemmy more.

  • Leftist and liberal are separate ideologies. Leftists like to criticize liberal policies because those policies tend to try and prop up/fix existing systems where leftists try to change the system itself. Some people hear any critique of America's Democratic party (ie liberals, in broad strokes) and assume it's coming from a right winger but that's not always the case, sometimes it's coming from those to the left of the party. In most other Western countries the US Democratic party would actually be a centrist party based on it's platforms and there would be a leftist political party to represent those left of the Democrats. The two party system prevents this so leftists and liberals get lumped together, with much consternation from both sides. This is, however, painting with a very broad brush and if you're interested in the topic I'd give it a google. There's lots of interesting reading out there.
