@dirkvanschalkwyk1919 That is not what he said. He said "The Left"! The grammar is important. That's the trouble with the Dirks. They think they know better.

@dirkvanschalkwyk1919 I am glad your amygdala is energised. I would definitely describe myself as an anachist of the Noam Chomsky school of thought. Playing devils advocate is a rather nebulous term, but I look at all sides of an issue. My opinions are formed not learnt.

There is not the left and the right. It is a spectrum. The has two meanings. One is a reference to a subject noun previously mentioned. The other is a unique noun. There are not only absolutes. If you only think in absolutes, on and off, you are a, not very bright, light bulb.

@evolassunglasses4673 The point is there have not been any (proper) left wing governments for decades. The centre left does not support every extremist views, they follow the desires of the electorate. The power is currently with the centre right wing. So called "leftists" are not in power. Therefore those in power are enabling these woke extremists. Ask yourself why, not whom is doing this. Of course it's the money.

@dirkvanschalkwyk1919 Ok Dirk, as you are able to read people's minds, and know what they mean instinctively, please do tell me which of your pidgeon holes you think I fit into.

@dirkvanschalkwyk1919 There is of course Dirk, the possibility that you know what he meant, even though he did not actually correctly express it, because you sit next to eachother in the echo chamber office. You bith belong to the same propaganda machine. Dirk! What a great name. It has elements if both Dick and jerk.

@dirkvanschalkwyk1919 Hey DIRK. You know what, I think you must be of The Left. You are trying to change the meanings of words ti suit your flawed ideology.

@dirkvanschalkwyk1919 Wrong. You need to open your mind Dirk. You think in binary terms. Rather like a light bulb.
