Is it because they are left wingers or Dems giving into mob mentality, and are great whinners?

I can't speak for Americans but at all the protests I've been on, all the people I've spoken to had a good understanding of the issues in question and a strong sense of their own views. And I can normally tell sheep from shepherds pretty well.

I think otherwise.

Why? If we are to succumb to common sense ("Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen" - Einstein), in all its subjectively short sighted glory, then you will become conservative PA style, or neocon. Not even all moral absolutists are that bad! 
quote:
Most lefty Brits I could see here were not willing to trust the people to govern. I suppose elitism is especially strong among the British educated class.

Damn straight, in this culture of anti-intellectualism and a tinderbox of potential witch hunts, I take enormous pride in myself and admiration of others that break free of that, the constant abuse that I personally have received from the age of 4 to now, to become someone capable and willing of thoughts beyond the simple material concerns of my life. I consider the "educated classes" as a whole more capable than the "working classes" at government, economics and the understanding required to run a nation. It so happens that there are a higher frequency of liberals among the intellectual groups. I do not believe a lay person should have more say than someone familiar with the issues in question. Its a contextual thing. Who would you rather defend you in court... a lay bricklayer or a highly skilled lawyer? Thats not to say one is more intelligent than another, its to say that one has relevant skills. A philosopher would make a lame plumber, and I dare say both are equally needed for a good civilisation.

It seems the best definition of left-wing right now is America-hating. And that's true if you live there or not (ie, MrFun, chegitz, Paiktis).

Someone's doing his best to negate the right to be taken seriously! . I don't hate America. I love the American people, their humour, confidence and hospitality, making us Brits look dur and uninteresting. I don't hate their government though I have concerns with it and intellectual disagreement, I do not hate it. What I do hate is war. PA, you need to stop labeling people with your uninformed and oblique definitions, your emotive arguments that stand like a tower of feathers in the gale of critical analysis and see things from beyond the pale of your own peculiar brand of short sighted North-Western little englander mentality. A word of advice.

Park Avenue/Boddingtons syndrom?
"I HATE>.....uh,, uh..!!@# America, no Blacks!!!@R, no YOU!!#@1!!!!!1"
Then MrFun would come in and say:
"blah, blah, blah, non-homosexual, blah, blah, Amerindian, blah, blah..."
Then some one like Ned or GePap would come along and post something really long, that no one would read except Boris who'd cut and past two lines out of it and give a nice three sentence critique about Mahler.
Then Sloww would come on and say "Yer a Jackass"...
I would then say, hehe, Jackass 
Then PA would try and troll a little more
The Che would spread some communist propoganda, followed by Zylka coming and talking about something completely random (either drugs or women), then self biased will show up agreeing with Zylka as he points out that everything I write is italics
Sooner or later MtG would pipe in claiming to be the expert in this... Ming will then warn PA that he's skating on thin ice.
Then, someone trying to be funny will threaten to throw him out of a helicopter.
JohnT will start having nightmares about Sophie and helicopters and black men.
Theben will say something, but since everyone has him on ignore no one will know what he said, but just assume it’s something similar to Che.
Q^3 will remind everyone that he is Asian AMERICA
Whaleboy would complain that everyone calls him Elijah, and the continue to complain that it elijah with a LOWER CASE "e"!!!
Boshko will protest for the squirrels
Paiktis will try to make it about Jews
Sava will blame Bush and the whole republican party
Berzerker will agree call Bush the new Hitler
Laz will write something about it in his blog and glue his head to the keyboard.
PA will try to troll again, but instead get himself banned for another week and the thread closed…
--
Man, it's been done to death.
Let's have another one 
Edit: Had to appease Elijah

I don't know if I've ever seen anyone, in real life or on the net, who is in more desperate need of a blowjob than Spinky/Bodds/Park Avenue.
