Reply #109: Actually, that's NOT what I was criticizing.

A lot of the more-radical-left is populated by people who are cynical, elitist, and like to play at being revolutionaries. Nearly all of them are the children of the moneyed classes. They are the ones who accuse Bill Clinton of being a mass murderer and Hillary of eating babies. No amount of reason will dissuade them, because their tribe has issued fatwa.

Remember, in 2000, when Al Gore supposedly financed the genocide of the U'we indians? There's plenty more. Counterpunch still sells books detailing "crimes" of Gore's that have been long debunked. Bill Clinton is still accused of singly being responsible for the deaths of half a million Iraqi babies (even here). Hillary is still accused of being an anti-Semite. These accusations all come from the Left.

The fringe agenda is a sectarian hatred agenda -- Trotsky and Lenin wanting to overthrow the liberal Duma. It's like that in any party or political tendency, our own included.
