| 26. Why is it derogatory? |

There is accepted a left and a right, correct? Generally, Democrats are the left, and Republicans are the right. In that section labelled the "left", there is are sub-sets, correct? One sub-set hovers near the center. The other subset is further to the left. So that is called the far left. Have I thus far stated something that is untrue?
