It doesn't seem like it to me. If any are in any sort of significant numbers, others seem to be quite successful in drowning them out.

Well, here are my IRL experiences. In the workplace or social gatherings I've debated 1960s leftists who were then middle aged like I was many times. Those discussions had one of two conclusions:
a. 'We will have to agree to disagree.'
b. 'I don't want to talk about it anymore.'

But none of them demanded that I be fired or censored. That is what's happening with the newer generation of leftists.

They won't ammend the Constitution since that is too hard, the bar is too high. They will just legislate it in the usual way and subvert the judiciary and frick us all over. Soros DA's and judges will seal the casket on our freedoms.

The Constitution has become a worthless rag now to them anyway. There is nothing sacred to the left.
