    Jason Bailey of "Flavorwire" inexplicably defines "far right" as “The government takes what they want, and taxes what they leave behind!” Yet right wing politics is characterized by advocacy of hierarchy and inequality. If Bailey is correct that the desire to restrain government from looting and mooching is "far right" then necessarily the "far left" believes that government expansion of public domain and taxing the crap out of people is egalitarian, since this is generally how left wing politics is characterized.

    Bailey is yet another example the functioning insanity that plagues this world.

      The way to deal with the echo chamber of the zero is not to deal with them. Engaging them is a fool's game. Let those who wish to meliorate their lives come to The Gulch. "Preachy," they say? We're not preachy enough. If any of their number set in the pews, I'm ready to deliver as many sermons as it takes to "exorcise the demons!" -- but here in The Gulch, not on their turf.
