What's Left of the U.S. "Left?" | Pillars of Movement Building | Crafting a Coalition

Love Doves and Fringe Ferrets,
Welcome to another riveting edition of Sunday Night Rants w/ Little Raven. Tonight's topic is: what the hell does the U.S. "left" actually stand for anymore? The behavior managers have done a bang up job splintering the body politic along interminably convoluted wedge issue and culture war lines. This free association solo stream aims to parse the useful principles from the counter-productive squabbles, as well as shine a light on the increasingly glaring contradictions and hypocrisies that plague the so-called "left" wing of the empire baby American body politic.
Realized after I uploaded this: I didn't even touch on free speech (though I addressed this issue at some length in the previous ep). Freedom of speech guarantees a free market of ideas, and if you start banning some speech, it's not long before YOUR speech gets targeted. It's also silly that too many lefties don't appreciate the 2nd Amendment. We have so few rights left... use 'em or lose 'em!
Two befouled wings of the War Machine Eagle:
"A liberal is someone who opposes every war except the current war, and supports all civil rights movements except the one that’s going on right now."
A conservative is someone who opposes a small number of wars only when the Democrats hold office, and increasingly, someone who reflexively blames either immigrants or George Soros for all the world's problems.
A diverse and multifoliate culture is a healthy culture. Nature loves biodiversity. Keep a nimble, productive, solution-oriented and spontaneous mind.
Con un corazón alegre,
little raven kerkaww
