Call bullshit on the "leftist" label.

[BaronChocula]

23. Q. And who controls the narrative?

A. White men devoted to the preservation of white male supremacy.

They have been the default center of power and/or comfort zones in America for centuries, thanks to a complacent and/or fearful consensus. We continue to elect them in spite of the fact the majority of Americans oppose their agenda. Their extremist media outlets frame coverage with intentionally derogatory language that seeps into the mainstream with ease. As a result, what we know as mainstream media mimics their loaded language which they would never use for kooky extremists on the right.

I've been seeing the word "leftist" in coverage of New York's Democratic Socialist aligned candidates over the past couple days and it pisses me off.
