re: The Far Left was never what they said they were

Classical liberalism died out over 100 years ago. These people are statists, not liberals. They want state control of your life and your finances.

These people are hateful, close minded, bigots hiding behind the name liberal. But they are not. They have nothing in common with the founding fathers who were true liberals. They don't want you having personal rights. They don't believe in natural rights or in God.

They hate those that disagree with them and want to destroy the opposition, not just win elections they want it gone. They will twist the law, lie, steal and do whatever it takes and feel justified in doing so.
