It's because you entire definition of "left" is given to you by corporate news and rightwing internet trolls. They have convinced you that "left" means you hate white men and want them banned from social media or something.

That's actually a small minority of people with a big corporate microphone called CNN and MSNBC. (or AKA, Comcast and AT&T) They literally represent less than 1% of the population.

Anything that's not white nationalist or free-market magical thinking is basically left atm.

You ever noticed how all these posters that are soooo offended by being considered racist are....you know -- racists. Motivated mostly by anti-immgrant pro-white identity politics.

It's either old line of shit or the one about lassez-faire economics or both. That's entire rightwing in this country. Discluding some old out of it fox viewers that simply think the left are deamons and otherwise don't think that much about actual policy or politics.

But that breed is dying out and being replaced mostly by memeing racists that ironically think they're "against identity politics."

Notice how the last two leftists tried to tell Cecily that she wasn't thinking correctly and was essentially being brainwashed by others?

Cecily knows what a far leftist is. Don't try to gaslight people.

Lol, right? Dude has a catalog of procommunist posts relating his political position to dismantling "income inequality" littered with buzzwords about the patriarchy, the gender pay gap, free healthcare and college, and promotion of socialism in the US and defines that as a centrist position.

Contrarily, "stop trying to dig deeper into my fucking pocket than you already do" is radical right.
Laughable.

Why do you need a free college education, if you "should" get paid just as much as a well educated doctor does, for serving up lattes at starbucks?

Where have i ever talked about "the patriarchy?" or gender pay gap?

Wealth inequality is rising, that's just a fact. The wealth in this country is getting more concentrated. Faster than the economy grows. Facts don't care about your feelings or designs to get ahead of the norm or whatever motivates you to promote policies that serve a small wealth owning minority.

They don't serve all white people, all hard working people or smart people or any of that shit. Just a small group of owners. There are many paths to being a large owner, mostly having to do with investment luck or luck of birth.

And that's what I talk about. You know, the things that are actually happening here in objective reality with wealth and where its heading. Not personal shit, not stories I like to hear. Objective reality.

Which I believe in.

the cruelty of it is Pocahontas is the only one laying out detailed policies and why but she's "unelectable" because she took the Sewermans bait

You and JD don't even think a "far left" exists.

Far left Progressives make up about 8% of the country.

Moderate leftists outnumber you. A lot of them think you guys take things way too far.

Democrat politicians and corporations cater to you because you infest Twitter and those idiots think Twitter represents America.
