I am not defending communism. I think it is doomed because it ignores human nature just as some other isms do. However that doesn't mean that those who disagree with me would necessarily do it in one of the ways it has been tried so far. I also don't think words mean the same thing to all people. As someone who spent his youth in a socialist country I can assure you Bernie Sanders idea of socialism is very different to what "we" thought it was or what other socialist countries were trying. And that's really more or less my point. Left-wing doesn't really say much by itself without more information. There is no belief that would be shared by everyone who either describes themselves as left-wing or is described as such. Same for right-wing.
