They aren't left, they aren't liberal, and they aren't interested in progress.
Radicals, be they right, or left, are holding us all back. They have merged into the same thing. Neither wants progress, they just want to whine and complain. They all need to get out of the way. Their anger and bitterness is holding us back. It's time to move on without them.
