Scotland went VERY lefty quite a while ago.

But it's hard to understand what this has to do with being left-wing. Left-wing used to mean pro-working class. Higher wages for factory workers, shorter hours, and government benefits.

Strange, how economic socialism morphed into chopping off children's body parts.

Here are some Brits on strike in the 1930s. Imagine telling them you want to chop off their son's penises.

When you allow a smidgeon of socialism, you are going to eventually get the two-fisted treatment.

True; however, today LEFTY means STALINIST COMMUNISM or worse.
