It would be nice if the far left, for once, did some introspection.

101. You keep asking in your thread "What has the "far left" accomplished?"

But I'm not sure what your definition of the "far left" is. Are you talking about the communist party?

There are positions that are mainstream today that even a few years ago were radically far left. Weed legalization was hippie bullshit only a few years ago, and so was federal recognition of gay marriage. Those were positions that only the "far left" were pushing for for years. The moderate left stood up and said, "Just wait your turn on these issues, and they'll come around eventually." but the "far left" continued to push for them.

Or are you referring to the mostly white suburban "alt-left" population of anti-vaxxers and Green Party voters who listened to Susan Sarandon and "just couldn't trust" Hillary Clinton, even when faced with the horrifying and disgusting alternative. Because if that's the group you're talking about, they're not really the "far left" any more than the "alt-right" is about economic uncertainty and not racism, white nationalism, and isolationism.
