I think it might be worthwhile to contextualize that a bit as in "In the US". I know a lot of Canadians who, by US standards, would described as extreme left wing (morally) who are "pro-military". Hell, by US standards, I would be considered as "dangerously left-wing", and I hang out with you guys !!!!!
