    The US has also been an inherently conservative country for 40+ years, and it is only just now gaining a substantial left wing presence.

      It is only since the Internet went wide that leftists in the US have been able to get unbiased attention. We were always here, but it’s hard when even MSNBC compared your ideas to dictators in the 1990’s and 2000’s before jumping on the bandwagon (but only if private corporations can get their middle man profiteering on).
