Consider this by Dr Antony Sutton: "It's not left vs. right. It's us vs. them."

He considers that the paradigms that we fight over, ie Left Wing vs Right Wing issues are all a ruse to actually control us all and the World is held in the grip of crooked double dealing financiers and banking conglomerates that control all the political parties and simply ensure that their political puppets are always in power.
Interesting idea. Google Dr Antony Sutton for some interesting views.

Ahhh...conspiracy theorists....what would good paranoics do without
someone to feed their need to believe not so much in chance - or my
historical theory that shit happens - but that some evil mastermind
(crooked financier today, crooked jewish financier in 1935 Germany)
or a cabal of the rich and powerful controls EVERYTHING !!!
Conspiracy theories always contain some truths and on the surface
seem reasonable enough. Before long they leave common sense behind.
Be careful Jim....you will be telling me next that the Protocols of Zion
were not faked and Israeli bankers mean to dominate us all !!!

The Left and the Right of old are long gone. There are winners and losers under both ways of doing things, and I liked Bill Clinton's pioneering of the 'Third Way' back in the 1990's. Tony Blair took this lead from Clinton, but then he had little choice but to change the Labour Party's stance as their previous agenda had kept Labour our of power for nearly two decades after the disaster of the late-1970's. It was the only way they were ever going to get elected again. Hence 'New Labour' from 1994 when he became leader, and then when in Government from 1997. I think Blair genuinely believed in it though. The origin of all this goes back even further, a book was written some time in the 1950's or 1960's by, I think, Harold Macmillan called The Middle Way.

However, it is not a wise man who always laps up the views, opinions and judgements handed to him from on high, without question.
In a post 9/11 World of a now continuous, "War on Terror", propagated by the Bush dynasty and to the benefit of the coffers of both themselves and their friends, it is wise to keep an open mind! Especially since this whole scenario was predicted by your so called, crazy conspiracy theorists.

The trouble with the use of the expression ?left wing? is that it is so confusing and meant to be, I feel, as used by Labour, Liberal Democrat or Conservative. What is the man on the Clapham bus reading his red top supposed to think when he reads about the ?left wing? of the Conservative Party or the ?right wing? of the Labour Party?
No, the true polarities of political parties of any hue is authoritarian or libertarian which are diametrically opposed to each other,
he British main parties are the best of friends and often ?old boys? who
conspire to share power.
Hitler was supposed to a fascist of the extreme right and Stalin a communist on the extreme left but they both wore big hat, jackboots and were extreme authoritarians the same as a religious Islamic government is extreme and authoritarian
I am a libertarian myself what do you think you are?
I live in hope of a libertarian proletarian party taking power and life could be so sweet, so hedonistic.
