How would you reword it? You are allowed only one sentence.

For starters, I think it's a mistake to try this kind of wordsmithing if the argument is meant as a serious one. If you are only casting stones, what the hell.

As for the notions, I said a few things farther down the thread. Perhaps you've read them by now.

Marx' work is a part of the mix, but so are Mills and Locke, New England transcendentalism, John Dewey's progressivism.

And, I left this out. As the right has moved further right into a very definite radicalism, the electable portions of the Dem party have become, in effect, the Burkean conservatives.

Not something I like but there it is.
