That's quite a statement, stranger. Amazing how you know so much about me from that one comment.

No. It isn't. It's a pretty damn mundane one.

The only way you can see anything left in the right-wing racketeering "two-party system" is if you don't have the foggiest idea what left and right actually means.

I take it this is the first time you've been informed of this?

You have been extremely condescending and rude, making sweeping assumptions about me based on a few sentences. I took a look at your comment history, and it seems that this is basically all you do here, attacking others to presumably make yourself feel better.

I'm fine with disagreement, but I have better things to do than help you compensate for whatever inadequacies you think you have.

Perhaps if the liberal hive-mind was less immunized against reality the "condescending and rude" behavior wouldn't be required.

This you?

I think it’s valid to talk about left and right (in addition to other labels with more detail) as long as we have a two-party system.

So I was wrong about you being completely uninformed (at best) or grossly misinformed (at worst) about the subject matter at hand?

I’m fine with disagreement,

We haven't disagreed on anything. In order for us to actually disagree, both of us needs to at least have a working knowledge of what it is we are talking about, don't we?

One of us knows what the terms "left" and "right" actually means in a political context - the other doesn't.

Nuance is not something to hide behind.
