We got at least a couple of takers, and I expanded a little on some of my views. What do you think?

I should mention that one thing that probably skews matters is a prevalent thought (that I mostly agree with) among communists that the criticism of rivals of one's state to appease liberals is not a good use of time. The reasoning goes that you aren't really in a position to correct those problems, so spending time on these things when speaking publicly is only going to support the basis for a "left opposition" to those foreign states even if that's not your personal aim. A version of this has been used by the FBI.

Because of this, I think your sampling might have been sabotaged by people operating on that principle, because convincing a liberal to be an anarcho-bidenist [someone who claims to be a radical but supports US foreign policy and/or the Democrats] isn't really a useful effort.
