It was already clear you were being the kind of poster that often gets
associated with an image of advocacy groups, but this, wow, I don't even
know where to pick it.

You must be from the USA (although these days the USA have excelled in
exporting far-right stupidity even more than their definition of
"democracy", so in fact you could be elsewhere...), as everything looks
far-left to you because of how deep in the shit things are there, and
you don't understand the concept of a parliamentary democracy with
proportional representation and mistake the head of government for the
political expression of the whole country. The far-right has a sizable
representation there and are probably much more of a worry than the
centre-left.

And iberian "socialist" parties are really better described as
centre-left, no matter how much people from the far-right want to
double-down on the red scare.

I'm guessing the biggest mistake in recent months has been the
cross-posting of a thread to a mac advocacy group. Regulars there
probably have you on killfile already?
