Do any of them argue for leftist positions? I am not aware. Please use actual argument instead of assertions and derailment.

Those are all liberal, e.g. center-right. None of them argue for public ownership of the means of production, none of them argue for major redistribution. When have you ever heard them talk of class warfare? Like I said, identity is a way t
