And is the CURRENT meaning of the word in present political discourse throughout the United States. I am well aware that the term derives from the (for most part sarcastic) comparison to Soviet Style "political officers" in party politics, running around enforcing proper use of terms and ideology. I am also aware (and clearly YOU are too) that it was a term of abuse even then, and that the evils it referred to where not always or even usually extremist by any standards (except in the minds of the people who rejected them).The abuse of the term by conservatives to refer to any an all liberal values is a more recent phenomena...
You have no idea what a "dogmatic leftist" is do you?dogmatic leftist like yourself
More significantly, you have no idea who or what I am, and you would have to be a massive dumbass to make that mistake.
