So there’s obviously his speech “the gentle laborer shall no longer suffer”, and he obviously hates capitalism. Where would he stand politically??
ChatGPT isn’t a good source, but it just says nothing is officially stated in the show and while he is probably an “artsy liberal-type”, he is too self-absorbed to care about politics.
I do kinda agree with the last line but I think he might be leftist at least.
He seems to be the type that curses Capitalism only because he isn’t at the top of it. He doesn’t want to test down the system, because he jumps at every chance he gets to join the world of the aristocrats.
Seeing as you start the question with “In the show”, I can fairly confidently say no, Squidward is never explicitly stated to be a communist.
