Let's say they do endorse her, that on it's own isn't enough to say she is far left, especially when you consider her evolution away from single payer and toward a more moderate position.
And then consider the context. She's a Democrat. The party known for neo-liberalism and selling out the working class.
The problem with the Democrats it that they are far too right wing.

Interesting story (it's in one of his earlier vids). It's more evidence that people can, and do, change.

Ironically, the rise of the alt-right is part of my evolution away from libertarianism. It, along with a slew of other things, made me aware that I was on the wrong side.

What we see from some of the folks here is something else entirely.

Marxism also has something offer and in about equal measure to libertarianism, imo.

Here you go: It's wild to me how many stories I am hearing about how these "new atheists" radicalized otherwise left-leaning folks into rightwing reactionary nonsense. I just wouldn't have expected that from the atheist side. I don't know what is more bewildering, the new atheist to alt-right pipeline, or the crunchy/hippy to alt-right pipeline. Both cause 504 errors in my brain.

There is nothing wrong with pure socialist or communist states. Over the many decades and places around the world they all just happened to implement it wrong.
That would never happen under Biden Harris.

That's putting it nicely, they consider that radical socialist communist Hitler left here.
They don't know what any of those terms mean, but it doesn't stop them.
