If the country doesn't stop moving to the right, we're going to end up as the conservatives
and the anarcho-radicals are going to end up as the liberal-progressives



Only bad things can come of this.

2. The Democrats in particular as a conservative party
That's the only thing standing between the country complete fascism

The Republican teabaggers have already fallen for the swastikas and Holocaust denials

3. Indeed it is rather odd
that people against torture and indefinite detention are now considered fringe leftists.

5. "going to end up as the conservatives"

How do you propose to stop or slow the trend? Things can and will ONLY get worse. The only cure is publicly financed elections
because only a tiny number of so-called progressives donate to political campaigns.
