All you’re trying to do is be the contrary clever dick which doesn’t aid the conversation. We’ll be getting one of your stupid oversize pictures next.

Left wing is apparently a massive spectrum between thinking we shouldn’t pay companies that offshore billions in profits while they plough human excrement into our waterways all the way to the complete removal of all private property rights. It’s pure fantasy to present it as almost one single monolithic entity - although it suits those on the right to remove all the nuance around it to scaremonger.

The idea you could walk and be at your butcher, baker, grocer and GP within 15 minutes get pilloried as a global conspiracy to control everyone’s lives.
