Regardless of name quibbling, I see it happening on social media. Dems distancing themselves from the cray-cray of the "alt-left."

Noticed a BIG shift right around the time stoopid folk were kicking granite and bronzed statues with their feet.

Thats fine......look at any exit poll you want. Going further left cost you the election. I'm glad you don't believe/realize that.


The Democratic party is more centrist now than ever. LOL

You obviously don't hang out with a liberal crowd, do you?


More centrist than what? This is almost surreal.

You're the one who keeps bringing it up, begging to be educated.

It's OK, I don't mind playing teacher now and then.

The American Democrats would be considered conservative in any other industrialized democracy on Earth, comrade. )))

Is that some sort of answer to my questions? I could care less the name you or I call your politics. Why does the Alt Left Tag cause you such consternation?

Give it some time. Eventually it will come to the point where these young ones will want to distance themselves from the Millennials.

Other articles like Forbes are confirming many of the young ones in Generation Z will be Conservative


forbes tho

if the kids are more fiscally conservative, it's because the economy sucks and they're broke.

as for socially conservative? not the ones i know. do you know any teenagers or young adults, personally?

The problem with social media?

It shows you what you want to see. It isn't an impartial or unfiltered view of reality by any stretch of the imagination. Despite how hard you might try, you aren't going to get an accurate view of things through social media.

If I believed so, my social media experience would tell me that everyone enjoys putting every possible recipe into a mason jar.

if you don't realize independents broke for Trump this last election,

Sure, he promised jobs, better cheaper universal healthcare access, lower taxes, etc. He's a great flim-flam man.



then well, I can't help you. Stay in denial.

What denial?

I think he misspelled the phrase "the Nile" -- as in the river in Egypt.

From what I hear, the water isn't terribly clean. I wouldn't want to stay in it for very long myself.

Do you think the Democrats should be center or Left? Most of America doesn't consider them Center right now.

No, because the "alt-left" doesn't exist. It's a made up name by alt-right extremists and right wing talking heads.


wait.. what? Does the alt-right exist? Is it not also made up?

My side didn't lose an election to a novice Politician with the "Most qualified Presidential Candidate ever" , tell me who is in denial? It's so cute having you act like this.

Again why don't you like the terminology Alt Left? You surely aren't Classical Liberals or centrists. What do you call yourself then?

Why does the Alt Left Tag cause you such consternation?

A wanna be dictator in high public office uses the label in a divisive manner.
"They are taking Your x"

Divisive.

You shouldn't get so mad at Hillary and the DNC, it's not healthy for you. You do know they were the first to use it right?

So you don't like being called names.....glass houses.

What would you name your movement? You can pick whatever.
