You're describing the center. The center is cool with NATO, and playing cop for the world.OCanada wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 11:39 am The left wing has not wanted to pull out of NATO orctge EU. The left wing has wanted to maintain world leadership and work with allies and NGOs.
They recognize the value of the global rule set put together post WW ll that has kept a relative level of stability and avoided global conflagration. After two world wars from 1914 through 1945 there hasn’t been one since.
For the left? Playing cop to the world is specifically their largest gripe, and has been since Vietnam. They're not ok with anything that leads to war. That includes NATO. I should know. I was one of them in the early 90's.
Lefties like me thought (again, past tense), that NATO should have been dissolved within months of the Soviets going belly up.
Let go of the rope entirely, now that the Soviets dropped their end, so to speak.
