I think of myself as progressive, id rather things progress rather than stay the same or go back to the way things used to be. But todays progressive seems to want the west to “progress” into third world countries. Do any of you know any sane leftists? I think if they loved their countries they wouldnt be leftist

You sound like a MAGA fascist racist. 

It's a symptom of something larger which is self ,loathing.

Lefties are bitter and twisted. Maybe it's a defective human gene.

The left does the exact opposite of whatever the right does even if it’s self destructive. For the left being progressive actually means to be digressive. Their sole purpose is to oppose as they sink further into their filthy state of demoralization. 

Socialist ideology mandates hate, resentment, authoritarianism and elimination of  enemies. History demonstrates that.

 

It is impossible to achieve the beautiful socialist future if Western values of freedom, hard work, equal OPPORTUNITY, free markets, etc, and their adherent exist.

 

This the West must be destroyed and all things that interfere with the "will of the people" eliminated.

 

The best part is all the lefty trannies and homosexuals  and furries and other wierd perverts, who form the tip of the spear against Judeo Christianity, will be the first ones at the ditches. Free thinking is inimical to the Socialist future.

Excuse my ignorance of the USA political scene but ... I often see this stated; "... registered (party xyz) ... " in US-related reports. Is it REALLY necessary to 'register' as a particular party's voter or is it a choice whether or not to do so? Does it then mean you can't change your mind spontaneously, without re-registering for another party? To officially 'register' seems an odd thing to do, in my view. Please explain.

.No way would I attack Mrs Trump, but I'd definitely give her one, as I suspect she's not getting any off your decrepit old leader.

Dude, I judge the truth of what I say by the emojis. The more sad and confused, the more truth there is. Watch this, on topic.

 

"Why," I asked Hitler, "do you call yourself a National Socialist, since your party programme is the very antithesis of that commonly accredited to socialism?"

"Socialism," he retorted, putting down his cup of tea, pugnaciously, "is the science of dealing with the common weal. Communism is not Socialism. Marxism is not Socialism. The Marxians have stolen the term and confused its meaning. I shall take Socialism away from the Socialists.

"Socialism is an ancient Aryan, Germanic institution. Our German ancestors held certain lands in common. They cultivated the idea of the common weal. Marxism has no right to disguise itself as socialism. Socialism, unlike Marxism, does not repudiate private property. Unlike Marxism, it involves no negation of personality, and unlike Marxism, it is patriotic."

 

 

I bolded for the folks that move their lips while they read. Let the emojis flow. Source: https://famous-trials.com/hitler/2529-1923-interview-with-adolf-hitler

In many states it’s required to be registered to an affiliate party to vote in the primaries. During the the national election anyone can vote for whoever they choose. Personally never registered to any political party, so wasn’t able to vote during the primaries. Though that wouldn’t have made any difference because the state I’m from is run by the criminal left.

You register to vote in Primaries. Im still a registered Democrat,  now for 50 plus years, I watched them turn into National Socialists.

 

You can vote for whom you choose though, except for primaries.

What democracy exists where you live?

I think first of all you have to qualify what you describe as a leftist. Do you consider every Democratic voter to be a leftist? Are you one of those people who labels a Democrat as a Socialist, Marxist or a Communist too? I certainly don't. Those are just ignorant and hateful slogans, from my point of view.

 

I've been a democratic voter my whole life and I'm very Centrist. I do not like the extreme left, I do not align myself with the progressives, I despise woke and PC, I approve of the death penalty, I do not approve of abortion past the first trimester and I have a myriad of other positions that would make me a conservative by the standards of most of my Democratic friends. 

 

So please elaborate with more clarity, if you care to.

I do not consider every Democrat a leftist, but unfortunately, Democrats typically vote for leftists. If you guys quit electing radicals, you'd win in a landslide.
