    People claiming to be leftists will impugn false beliefs on you any chance they get. You can be totally perfect and still be drummed out of the corp.

    The so-called left is fucked, much by Design, and controlled by the right.

      If you are speaking about US politics you are correct. There has not been a left since McCarthyism when the government purged all the leftist.

      We have a right and a far right.

        The right can start a campaign against anybody on the left that angers them, as the disparate left is flailing without real leadership.

        There is a reason that despite a clear majority supporting left ideas, like socialized medicine, like not allowing the super rich to screw working people Beyond Reason, but the right still wins.

        It is partly just a lack of organization. But a lack of understanding and having the wrong people in charge of every organization at every level is not a bit Factor.
