I agree that overall were more left than the party
Like I said.
but Ive seen more far left types outside of DU, like on Twitter, Facebook, and that horrible JPR site.
of course. And I've seen anarchists elsewhere. DU has never been the home of extreme radicals (or they didn't last long), but DU has long had a far left bend to it. Joe Biden leading Sanders, and tying with Warren, doesn't necessarily mean the site is more moderate than it's ever been. It likely means it's more pragmatic in the face of a second Trump term.
