As an American, I always considered myself pretty far left, in that I’m more than happy to wade pretty deep into democratic socialism. I haven’t really seen a policy proposal by any elected leader I thought was too far. Green New Deal or Defund the Police. Cool with me.
But now that the Angry Left has decided that burning down the country to prove a political point is a valid strategy for success, I guess I’m just another old moderate now.
How depressing all the way around.
