all of the ones that people compete to get, respect, require high IQ's and work ethic.
it's clear that america's "left" is american as opposed to left-wing, in very, VERY bad ways
"Non Swing Voter" is not remotely "left wing"
The only reason he identifies as a Democrat is due to desire need to feel superior to others (which I'm sure he'd also get done if he wanted to be a Republican, with people like this it doesn't really matter which party wins, it's more of a spectator sport).
It's interesting because the truth is (based on his posting history) that he holds nothing but thinly veiled (not veiled at all?) contempt for the working class (which he deems susceptible to wanting "free stuff"). On top of this he has more disdain for anyone else he considers less intelligent than himself (you can qualify for this by disagreeing with him).*
Add all of the above in with a massive strain of arrogance, an insufferable amount of ignorance, a complete lack of self-awareness, along with a laughably simplistic worldview and you can see why he is disliked across the forum.
Just see what "Non Swing Voter" has to say about the minimum wage if you want a glimpse of how "left wing" he is
* Funnily enough (and despite his current optimism about the party) if his ideas held sway in the Democratic Party it would collapse very quickly, because even as it may gain some among top CEOs, the media, and other people who he would consider "high IQ" and doing "real work", (lol!) this would happen at the expense of alienating the backbone of the party who would rather not see their social security slashed completely.
