The Sage Garden is obviously mostly full of True Leftist quotes and occasionally some right wing and libertarian posters, so it can involve other ideologies. But how about the type of people who are strongly against the right wing and also the True Left and strongly loyal to the Democratic Party? What would Sage from that be like and some examples?

Also Moderate Hero Sage is something I can envision though it usually doesn't happen on this forum because of the type of people the Moderate Heroes are. But imagine someone trying to make a false equivalency arguing that standard progressive activists are just as bad as the Tea Party loons or militia types. Actually I recall once Elizabeth Warren being compared to Michele Bachmann and Louie Gohmert, that's a good example.

I'd hate to toot my own horn, but don't I kind of fit that description?  I've landed in the Sage Garden a few times.

Proposals from the progressives are simply correct; proposals from everyone else are sage.

I was kind of hoping for some quotes or whatever instead of just accusations. I'm pretty sure I've never made the Sage Garden.

This is, ironically or not, a good example.

"Moderate Hero Sagacity" would probably look a lot more like producerism/right-populism than the sort of Clintonian Third Way-ist centrism we associate with 'moderatism' in America.

BRTD's egregious signature, which equates the left with third world state capitalism, certainly qualifies.
