Well... I can agree with the first sentence. The second? I doubt 98% of all people MATTER — sounds like way too big of a percentage to me.
The real point, though, is this: where in today's
main public "debate"
is this "far left wing"? Obviously it's not CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times or The Washington Post. It's not even Bill Maher. Shit, it's not even Noam Chomsky (not that he's anywhere to be seen on media outlets like the ones I just mentioned). So, for purposes of discussing the Trumpocalyptic context in which we live, it's rather irrelevant... Unless, of course, one's willing to be sucked into the pathological vortexes of horseshit that are Faux News AND Schunk's bunk.
