For instance, during Vietnam, it was the Left that opposed the Neo-con war-machine. It was the Left that fought for free speech (hard to imagine if you weren't there, but . . . it happened). The Left -- not the Far-Left, but typical Democrats -- were fans of JFK, of MLK, of ending the toxic stupidity of racism, and much else besides.
Many on the left showed genuine compassion, openness to other viewpoints, and in general would be perfectly at home in MAGA today.
The 'left' has always been Liberal/communism and has Never been 'Democratic'. This has been hidden by the 24/7 Lies of MSM, THE greatest Enemy of The People in history.

No, it's the same exact evil force in charge.
