The 'Left' lost in the US because it's not really the Left anymore but ultra-capitalists and free-marketeers just like the traditional Reagan and Bush Republicans. We know that because the Obama administration sent no Wall Street bankers to gaol after the GFC despite a mountain of white-collar crime.They do have people from both sides. That was my point.
I'd hate to have all lefties on the panel. If there were, we'd be deprived of the right to laugh at people like Daisy Cousens and Helen Andrews. Although in saying that, I only laugh meekly at Andrews as the serial killer hairdo and glasses make me a little uneasy.
Who brought up Chickarovski?
And lastly, **** me dead this is painful and I'm not surprised you vote for the right side of politics.
The narrative to come out of the Trump election was the left had lost because they won't sit down and have a conversation with the right. I knew at the time it was a ****ing joke...it would just result in an endless circle of mind-numbing conversations like this one.
The most intelligent people I know vote left (and the least intelligent, well, you know where this is going,). I'll stick with the smart folk.
That's not to say there are no intelligent voters on the right, but I just personally don't believe it's possible to do so unless you either believe we're being invaded by Muslims, are an aspirational voter, or have more to gain personally than the nation does as a whole.
As a result they lost the vote of their traditional constituency, the blue collar worker.How Wall Street’s Bankers Stayed Out of Jail

So the political paradigm isn't really Left V Right anymore because the traditional Left vacated the premises 20 years ago, but rather Globalist V Nationalist.
