    No no, they pretend (even to themselves, I think) that they can’t tell them apart, but they can and like what they see from the right more. They deny it because it’s not politically/socially expedient, but this is why when push comes to shove they invariably fall in with the right.

        This is only true when considered on a different scale. In the United States where left and right are both still on the right, absolutely not. In a country when both sides lean more left, maybe.

          I disagree. Communism won the propaganda war in 20th century, and now what we consider left and right are all on the left side. US is slightly righter than Europe but still left from center.
