Wait, do you actually think Hillary Clinton is part of the "extreme left wing"? Have you even like, talked to someone who is moderately left wing like say a Bernie Sanders supporter about how they view Clinton? And you're aware Bernie Sanders lost because the Democrats considered him a threat from the left? And that every single person in the Democratic party is to the right of him? And that theres significant amounts of political thought to the left of him? Like go ask anyone living in a country with actual left wing politicians what they think about Hillary Clinton's politics and they will tell you shes a center-right politician. Do you actually think real extreme leftists like communists or anarchists are Hillary Clinton supporters? Do you really think anything left of very slightly center-left is even included in the overton window in the US? How do you expect anyone to respect your opinions on politics when you very clearly don't even understand what the terms like left and right wing that you are using mean and seem to lack any understanding of what the actual full landscape of political theory looks like?

You're right in that Hillary is fairly mainstream leftist, and her views are absolutely awful and inline with the original comment I responded to. It only gets worse as you go even further left! And that's my point. The extreme right poses not even 1% of the threat of the extreme left. Your criticism really only strengthens the evidence I've presented. > How do you expect anyone to respect your opinions on politics when you very clearly don't even understand what the terms like left and right wing Hillary may be mainstream, but she takes her cues from the extreme left. Starting with the Marxist movements of the 50s and 60s, she knows that she can get votes by dividing people into various oppressor/oppressed categories and riling up the alleged oppressed into activism. You don't have to be hard left to be influenced by the hard left and to operate under their rules and frameworks and further their agendas. At the end of the day, I've articulated my points more than well enough for an open-minded person to gain something from it. I'm sorry if that doesn't describe you as a person.
