Leftist is -such- a broad term, even excluding "Far Left."

If you're not aware of it already, read up on the Overton Window. Most "Leftist" Americans are seen as Center-Right to a lot of the developed world.

  • American Republicans are considered far-right fascist authoritarians to the rest of the developed world, and rarely get more than a few % of votes.

If you're a Harris voter, you're the American conservative and would have voted for Reagan proudly, given that was Harris' campaign policies.

Why do you keep talking about this Jesus? Why don't we discuss what Quetzalcoatl was up to when his wife Quetzalpetatl was away while we're at it?

These trumpers are every bit as Christian as any other Christian.I refuse to let other Christians brush them away and brand them "fake Christians". These are the dregs of your religion, this is what your religion created. Own it and fix it, don't brush it off
