Definitions of left and right
Some of the recent threads got me thinking. Can we come up with a general description of the two ends of the political spectrum based on the posts we read here?
I will start the "discussion" (which, I am sure, wil quickly devolve):
The left:
A disorganized gang of ferociously independent raggedy-assed individualists incapable of mounting an organized position on just about everything because they are too busy examining and re-examining every possible outcome, leading to a form of intellectual shutdown. Too much analysis leads to paralysis.
The right:
More like an ant colony. Each member has the same purpose, is pre-programmed and individually incapable of original thought, able only to chant the colony mantra. However, they are effective at specific tasks which include obliterating any object in the way. No action is out of bounds as long as the goal is obtained.
As I said, just a beginning. And, of course, this does not address the more radical so far out of the mainstream members. Feel free to try to define the undefinable.
Have fun and play nice (Oh, yeah.....)
