    What could go wrong now? The left is notorious for abandoning its leaders for the smallest mistakes.

    Could it happen?

          I’m just a normal human being that uses words in normal human context and not like a demented psychopath that needs to define each meaning for every possible dumbass who thinks they are smart.

          No I don’t think they are particularly left, but they are left in relation to the other party and they are considered to be the left for that very reason (at least!).

          Again, you are embarrassing yourself with comments like that. You are like a little child that listens to a teacher and tries to find bizarre situations in which what the teacher says is not true. Its pointless and dumb.

          Bye.

              A rather large majority says the democratic party is the left. That is why I used the word, not because I wanted to talk what they are and what they aren’t. That is how normal people usually do. Normal people don’t nitpick about every single word and try to deconstruct them to find faults when the topic is something else.

                Which people say they are left? I’m not nitpicking, you are fundamentally wrong about using the term. It wasn’t a throwaway word, it is essential to the meaning of your post, and this incorrect. You can’t expect to throw disparaging remarks around when your understanding is not right.

                  I am 100% not wrong about using the term. Words don’t mean whatever you decide they mean.

                  Which people say they are the left? Almost everyone. If you do a poll and ask all Americans, no, everyone in the world which is the left party and which is the right, what do you think you will get? Maybe you think numbers don’t matter? They do where words and meanings come into place. Maybe you think her policies are not sufficiently to the left for your taste? Though.

                  What disparaging remarks? That the left - meaning the democratic party with all it’s progressive and less progressive individuals together with other leftist parties are their own worst enemy?

                  What a bloody contraversial statement! Nobody in history every said something so disparaging. Let’s attack this guy on all angles for this crazy statement.

                  This is truly amazing and at mindnumbingly boring at the same time.

          Exactly. No matter how far you lean to the right, your left nut is always left

            I couldn’t say it better myself! Some trolls will go out of their way to find a reason for insults over a single insignificant word. Wether that reason is linguistic or ideological or just pointless in every way.

            You could say the most benign banal thing and they will jump on it like crazy people. It’s normal, it’s Internet, but it’s also sad.

      Looks at Clinton… Looks at JFK… Looks at Jimmy Carter…

      What the fuck are you even talking about? I can think of a lot of small mistakes that could have ruined any of the examples I provided but they are all LEFT heroes.
