Leftism

Overview and Definition
Leftism (also known as egalitarianism) is an extremely broad group of ideologies occupying the equality-focused portion of most political frameworks. It is directly opposed to Rightism

Colloquial Definition
Many political frameworks claim that Leftism does not occupy the egalitarian and equality-focused ideologies of politics, but instead refers to governmental control of any kind. According to most reliable sources, it is likely that this idea arose from a cultural movement known as political illiteracy.

To individuals who are (somehow) even more politically illiterate, "Leftism" refers, simply, to any kind of change to the status quo, or a rebellion against the traditions of the past. Scrutiny by any genuine political authority (that this wiki 100% certainly does not claim to be) finds that this idea is laughable at best, and ruins political discourse at worst. Also a lot of these people think that liberalism is a left-wing ideology, so that's pretty dumb
