You might be right. I don't know. A better phrasing might have been "anti-left" or "left-critical" viewpoint.

  >A better phrasing might have been "anti-left" or "left-critical" viewpoint. Not really, considering that we on the radical left don't even consider the Democrats left-wing at all. They're just... liberals.

  > "anti-left" You might want to address your concerns to the party that just screwed up badly in the election, not "the left". The Democratic Party has spent the last few decades moving away from left-wing politics, with Clinton supporting a more mixed set of political views. Blaming "the left" for recent(-ish) problems in government isn't accurate when there hasn't been a lot of representation of the actual left in a while. That may be changing with Bernie and other recent support for liberal and progressive positions, but the current party is still very centrist.

    You're right. This is why I mentioned not liking the whole left/right terminology in the first place.
