While it should be a clear warming sign if you have right wing extremists and progressives on the left saying the same isolationist talking points, you still have a fair amount of progressives who unwittingly parrot talking points that are no different from what you would hear from Tucker Carlson. In the photo below, for example, I don't think Green Party candidate Jill Stein was being sarcastic, but perhaps I just am not getting her humor.
