From "Left Wing" or even "Ultra Left Wing" to Communism in one jump? Stunning.
For the record, I don't conflate "Ultra" Left Wing with liberalism or socialism any more than I conflate "Ultra" Right Wing with Libertarianism or Randism. To me, you can have liberals and conservatives and socialists and communists and libertarians and all the rest... and then you have the Ultra-Left and the Ultra-Right, defined as being In Opposition To The Other Side.
Ann Coulter? Ultra-Right. William F. Buckley? Conservative. Two entirely different things.
