The left parties have their share of flaws like any other party but I can still have intense quality debates and discussions with them comfortably something that is just not possible with the Right wing loons.
@sridhar85 Previously they had more qualities tbh. Nowadays I have seen many (over internet and in real life) who proclaim themselves to be a leftist, would label anyone disagreeing with them as "Bhakt" just like RWs do with 'Anti Nationals'.
Previously it wasn't the case at all! In our locality, one could criticize CPIM leaders in front of them and they would just listen without any firing back..
@shibaprasad You could be right there probably may be a few such exceptions but by and large you can still have a meaningful conversation with them than the other side.
