if by "the left" you mean liberals/democrats in the united states, then yeah i'd agree with you. but despite what the media will tell you (and despite the only left-wing party being almost exclusively liberal), liberals only make up like 11% of the population, and most of the left hates them. pushy, self-righteous, and purity-obsessed, mostly middle-class (and therefore with divided class loyalties), and always insincere.

Phil Ochs was right when he said they're "ten degrees to the left at the best of times, ten degrees to the right if it affects them personally." "scratch a liberals and a fascist bleeds" is a common slogal in the circles i spend time in lol
