Okay I get it. But what's up with the "far left" parlance? Using far left as a slur against people who would have been regarded as liberals in the New Deal era doesn't reflect well on Dems today.

#fascism#biden#dems

@JoeChip @Adirondack@toad.social I don’t think of it as a slur, if you do, that’s on you my friend.
I mention the far left because some of those who self identify as the far left have such issues with Biden, the Dems etc that they may not have noticed that this administration IS actually starting to go after the wealthy a bit. For some it’s hard to vote for either of the two major parties rather than the Green Party even in this time of crisis because of class issues

@voron

I don't necessarily disagree, but the fact is "far left" is being deliberately *used* as a slur by Maher-style libs with the express purpose of discrediting the left.
@Adirondack

@JoeChip @Adirondack@toad.social of course, but when some jack-ass beats someone with a hammer don’t yell at a carpenter for banging in a nail with one

@Adirondack@toad.social @JoeChip Btw, I like & agree with most people who are called the far left, or self identify as such.
Really those terms have become a bit whacky as you say which I mention in one of my pinned tweets.

@voron
Why would the "far left" knock on doors for them?
