Reply #21: The two demagogues you cite were not anything close to being "leftists" or progressives.

[Better Believe It]

Huey Long and Father Coughlin were not left-wing radicals in any sense of that term. They were right-wing reactionary demagogues that were opposed by the entire left and progressive movements during the Great Depression.

That's just an established historical fact.

So please don't try and portray Long and Coughlin as "professional leftists".

I hope you study that history more carefully.
