I did think you were more ucp then ndp, in Alberta, which is very much right wing, but i could be wrong. I am curious to what anyone really thinks what far left is now though, without the one meme.
In my experience, people who say woke, or far left, cannot really describe it. Equality is not woke in any way or sense of the word. Woke was from maybe 50 years ago, before when rights for equality were being fought for. Now it's for conspiracy theory people and people who are are far right and cannot explain their position or the definition. That is another good YouTube about history.
Detroit Rally - I liked the speech, though I like them both and i would vote Harris. If you have a suggestion, I will watch one in trade.

To me, being on the far left of the Democratic Party means being for subsidized education, subsidized health care, and asking those that are successful enough contribute more in taxes to make large government programs possible. There are only two big tents parties in America, and I decided long ago that I'd be with the party that are more for the people than corporations.
As for my post history - I've advocated for the quick release of body camera footage when the Calgary Police killed a man about a month ago. I'm strongly against any government subsidies for the Flames to get a new arena paid for by people like me who don't attend events there more than once a year. I also think the closed shop system of the CHL and NHL is crazy, and goes against everything the free movement of labour means, especially the draft system.
