    I have never met a leftist I didn’t like

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

      Political ideology is a spectrum, and I feel that Leftists tend to be as hostile towards those they deem ‘not as left’ as them, just as much as they are towards Fascists, Neo-Cons and their ilk.

      It’s basically the no true Scotsman fallacy manifest.
