Oh my.

It's pretty noisy on Skins's island, the primitives all jumping up-and-down getting red-white-and-blue in the face wiggle-waggling their armpits at each other.

But one does manage to find one campfire of calm.

The hard left"... you know what is so damn comical about this statement?

It is tendentious and it is based on zero facts. The United States does not have a hard left. The last version of that died with the New Left of the 1960s. The approved range of what politics is in the US qualifies anywhere else in the world anywhere from (I will be nice) from center to hard right. Left really does not exist in any organized fashion in this country.
 
So it is kind of hilarious to read posts about the left, or the hard left, or the damn commies.
 
I will say it right now, our approved political conversation has moved so far right that it is down right dangerous and fascist.
 
We have gotten rid in textbooks of whole swaths of US History, including the history of labor (talk about left). We have also made things like workers rights to be almost revolutionary. I mean silly shit like the 40 hour week, things workers died for.
 
This propaganda campaign has been so damn effective that we really have no organized opposition to the new corporate state that has risen. Yet, we still read these attacks, which are down right hilarious. What left do you speak off?
 
This is all I have to say to those who keep using that term at this point.

The bullies must be preoccupied elsewhere.

She is getting lots of K&Rs and kudos from the primitives.  Her chubby little heart must be swelling with pride.

Remember, I'm very anthropological.

This is one of the ritual dances the primitives do, when they argue.

Can't.  It overflows everywhere.

So much cognitive disconnect, it would be impossible to fix.

All I can visualize is a bunch of Libs doing the Chicken Dance.

So to the primitives, the "hard left" would be Kim Jong-un on steroids.

OK  :mental:

@frank, LOL  oh thanks- a visual, now. (I'm very archeological, actually. Pre Columbian & ancient Britain/ Ireland, specifically)

I try (really hard) to keep them in perspective ( :rofl:  ) but between being grossed out, mortified, & terror struck, it's not always easy. I don't remember how I coped before I found the Cave.

@USA Didn't the Kim kid do some kind of gangsta rap thing or something. Ritual dances, chicken dances, whatever that was...okay. It's getting funnier.

Pre edit. It was "gangnam style".

52. Yet there are still a few "far leftists" out there.......

And I have a feeling the sentiment IS growing. It just takes a while for the marginalization to wear off and for people to decide, "Yep. Marx was right and I'm not going to deny it anymore."
Right.

This reminds me of the people who say someday soccer will be a major sport in the U.S..

Communism/Socialism by any other name is still the same tired old worn out ideas. Call it lemon marangue pie all you want but it still reeks of death and failure no matter how many times it's tried.

Nothing is left enough for leftists.  :mental: Who are the bullies at DU?

Anyone at the DUmp who realizes the crazy bald dwarf is an arrogant buffoon.

If the dems have their way and let Mexico colonize the US, soccer will be the dominant sport.
