The Rise of the left

[Glacier]

It would be reassuring to believe that this left group’s anti-American views are age-specific and that they will become more “patriotic” as they get older. But that is unlikely to happen. The millennials are an attitudinal cohort: They are to the Democratic party of the future what the baby boomers of the 1960s counter-culture were to the Democratic party today. That future, if the Dems get back into power, will likely belong to Marxists.

The left is just as scary as the right, imo. Both will use any means necessary to achieve their goals, reality be damned. The problem with the left is how little they care for freedom of speech, which is under an all-out assault in our society.

It's quite depressing what's happening.

P.S. Thanks ferri. I've retracted the paragraph.

P.S.2. Now I see why I couldn't find my fav room. It's now in the Bickering Room. Perfectly named too. Sweet!

Any extremist group to the left or right is worrisome. What is as mystifying is how persuadable such groups can be in appealing to short sighted ands uninformed voters who will swing to one extreme or another just because they want a 'change'
