Reply #113: It's not 'subjective' at all... [View All]

- There have always been issues, ideals and principles that has separated the left from the right. It wasn't until the advent of the 'new' Democrats that factions within the party were willing to 'trade' these values for a seat at the corporate table.

- Many of the posters on this forum that some call 'far-left' would have been considered mainstream Democrats just a few years ago. Now they're labeled as 'liberal' for simply adhering to principles they grew up with and have fought for over a lifetime.

- I think it's clear that the Democratic party has been 'infiltrated' by so-called 'centrists' willing to compromise too much on the very issues that once differentiated the politics of left and right.

- The end result? There's no longer a party that represents the people versus a party that represents the corporations. Instead...we have two parties that represent the corporations versus the people. This leaves the poor and working class to fend for themselves as both parties abandon unions, worker's rights, choice and environmental protections.

- You know the rest of the story...
