Obama is not, by any stretch of the imagination, Left wing.
By your supposed European, much less British, politics.
Of course those Tories, which I assume you despise, would be slammed as too liberal in America.
By
any stretch, there is no
genuine Left operating in mainstream American politics. I don't think even an educated, contented Democrat could say their party holds genuine Leftist beliefs.
So long as the US operates under the ruthless non-rules of capitalism, it'll be the opposite to an egalitarian society.
But who says yours is genuine? You?
I'm not interested in this question because it's irrelevant. I'm a Marxist; by extension, a humanist, an egalitarian. I don't see any genuine socialist policies in the current US set-up. You can make "progress" this way and that, but without the abolishment of capitalism, any leeway is still going to leave gross and abhorred injustices.
Didn't we have a debate about confusing subjectivity with fact at FCM about movies once?
Not that I remember, but again: irrelevant.
