I think LEFT/RIGHT still has some usefulness. Certainly it needs emphasized that the oligarchy plays all sides against the middle.
I deplore that we allowed the MSM et al to change the DIMRATS from red to blue in the media. They’ve long been Commie red.
They love to confuse matters. End results when they talk about red state blue state I have to stop and think a minute to make sure I’m straight on which is which.
