I thought that for something to be dignified with an -ism tag it had to have a nontrivial principle to it....
Doesn't anyone see ridiculousness in statements like "I'm not an automaton: when Kerry does something I don't like I'm definitely going to scream very loudly"? We need to stock up on pacifiers, I think.
And just why should Kerry folks be nice people and take the soft defensive all the time? Why not expect of people who are less gradualist aka extreme Leftists to justify why their demand for purity and revolution is realistic and desirable? And similar for more conservative folks who object?
