That’s true, and I already said that to my leftist friends in the 1960s and 70s. There is nothing leftist or rightist about any authoritarian regime, except names. (Well, except some small nuances also, but fundamentally, without democracy “right” and “left” are no more ideas, but label to attracts some people in some circumstances. > Trump is as racist as any Nazi; I agree. Note that nazism was called national socialisme (Nationalsozialismus), despite being rightly considered at the extreme right, but some put it at the extreme left: it was the party of the German workers… Extreme right and extreme left are basically the same, and they are against democracy, and they see their opponents as dissident, or enemies... > just read about his behavior toward the Central Park Five.

I think he is a sort of autiste. He deserves the jail, or some medical treatment, perhaps. It is just that by Left or extreme Left, we mean the party who defended the Soviets (and satellites) against America and Europa, like the French communist party. North Korea is of course just a blind monarchy, it is not to the left or right, but it belongs to the club of countries defended by the left for many years, like the Communist China, Russia, etc. Without a democracy, right and left have not much meaning. > He is only idea is that he's right and everybody should admire him for being > so smart and tough.
