She was always far left, and that fact underpinned pretty much every older video. She has always talked about social and economic issues, and done a damn good job of it.
As a socialist she isn't really that leftist, left side of the neoliberal consensus for sure.
I thought there was definite leftness there, I feel like it was perhaps more moderate, balanced, and based on facts. But perhaps I just grew up.
Interesting take. I grew up and swung hard left. I'm a union executive and an advocate for voting reform and a universal basic income. My conservative father and I have the odd clash but surprisingly he's pretty receptive to all this, and I've found many conservative folk are when you don't treat them like they're stupid.
Well, people don't of course all grow to the same direction.
I think we old people (in 40+s) generally appreciate when young people passionately achieve something, even if it doesn't exactly align with our own values.
