12. Near as I can tell, it's me and about 5 others on this
board. :) In truth, there's a few of ways to look at this question. In propaganda speak, the far left is anybody that's to the left of A) the Democratic Party leadership or B) to the left of Mitch McConnell and John Boener. A) or B) depends on your team. Since the media is a propaganda arm of the system, most of the time the far left is B), but sometimes it's A). In historic terms the far left consists of communists, socialists, and anarchists. In the relativistic terms of todays politics, the far left is anybody who's OK with the policies of FDR.
