    I have never met a leftist I didn’t like

    but I only consider somebody a leftist if they respect human rights.

      Unfortunately all the wanna-be Pol Pots out there also consider themselves to be leftists.

      I’m always under the assumption that everyone can be an asshole. I had a very good friend qnd we’re both vegans. To me it’s just a dietary choice that i made, for her it was almost like a religion. Like when she met someone who was also a vegan or saw someone on tv that was a vegan, she always assumed that it’s a good person, or just rooted for that person, no questions asked.
