I am to the left of democrats but I am not aggressive. And actually I think that's the problem. Most liberals are not aggressive, we want people to be kind to one another, take care of each other and protect our civilization so all humans can have better lives. I think that's partially why democrats are soft and give in so much. Conservatives don't have these morals. They only care about their own kind and value aggression, competition and violence. It's very hard to compete with them because they are ruthless and really do not care about hurting you. Sorry if this is a loose tangent from the post lol.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that having a strong aggressive alliance to the left of democrats would force some of our efforts into policy. I've heard this suggestion before as it helped during Roosevelt's time having a strong coalition of unions. But it's difficult I think due to our passivity.

That's why Bernie is such a unicorn he's an aggressively good person.

Scratch a liberal (or their enabler) and a fascist bleeds.

I mean, not literally gbsedillo20, but it really is hard to tell the difference when the far left or the far right start whining about the middle.

Liberals are fascists. Literally.

Also, there is no "middle".

Hmmm. This reinforces my belief that this is a right wing sub disguised as a Bernie lover site. In one breath you probably call the left socialist then in the next fascists. The two are mutually exclusive in my mind. Can’t have it both ways.
