2. And Communism, and Hitler.
It's all "both sides do it" bullshit.

5. I have, but he is no hero
he has a loner, and the only time we all got time to read his ramblings was, through his manifesto.

Mike he is no hero to anybody beyond maybe, the ELF. Which is a fringe element in the developed world. The US don't have an organized left, this ist he same shit, both sides do it shtick.

8. Yes. I agree and retract my comment that his work is worth reading.
And I never said he was a hero. I only said he was a thinker.

10. The talker on the TV used the words, HERO OF THE LEFT
then he qualified to some in the far left.

11. Nadine, I admit I am losing it. I hardly know what I am thinking or saying anymore,
I am angry, so sad, so confused and so influenced by conflicting, ambiguous and ambivalent points of view.

I thank you for your reality checks.

7. That was bizarre, and they are really reaching for samples of the left "doing it also."

13. If the RW wants to be realistic, they could at least point to Noam Chomsky as a "hero of the left"
I could accept that, or perhaps the Dalai Lama or someone like that.

15. No. Kazynski has nothing to do with the Left.
I have serious differences with the Left, but I have not encountered Left leaning nuts that would kill as a response to issues that bother them.

18. Along with calling everyone to the left of Reagan a socialist...
the left was demonized by lumping all of us into one group where Kazynski, the Weather Underground, and every other fringe group are comrades in a world wide Socialist movement. The right built themselves up as the heroes and made everyone else the villains wearing the same stupid black hat.

When crafting a message, the eschew any hint of complexity.

Anytime any group hyper simplifies the other side to fit under a neat sound-bite, they are doing the same thing.
