I honestly can't think of anything that would meet your standard. > And yes, hello. They do track our phones. I mean they track you personally. They are always watching. Be careful out there!

> I mean they track you personally. They are always watching. Be careful out there! Your defensiveness hides some of the only truth in your post. Yes brother, they personally track all of us. Do you think this is good? Have you thought of asking someone why you answer honesty with scorn and sarcasm? > the left in {{CURRENTYEAR}} is not defined by these people from the 20th century. Ho ho. That's like saying communism isn't influenced by Marx because he's dead. If anyone reads any leftist philosophy that's what they're getting. Who do you think the left's thought leaders are then, and how do they repudiate the past wrong-think or do they pretend it's not there? For instance, if you read some of the earlier American political leaders they were racist and owned slaves, and now their parties repudiate these views and actions. Where are the leftists that disclaim forced collectivism and the rest of the centuries of nonsense, if you want to tell me that the movement changed? Last I looked though, socialists and communists are still a central part of the movement. > > more focused on policy than identity > I think you should look for it. I honestly can't think of anything that would meet your standard. That's easy - community groups of citizens motivated to fix something. You aren't worrying about a name and national attention and the intellectual legacy of your team, you're just a bunch of parents doing what needs to be done. It gets rarer the further you go from the individuals.
