Yes, the founders and early patriots were indeed, left wing extremists. The were on the left because they were seeking to overturn the status quo. That said when the American Revolution was won the patriots quickly became the defenders of the revolutionary gains, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. They were the defenders of the new status quo. Today many are wrongly labeled right wing extremist, but that is a fallacy in that these patriots on the right seek to protect the constitutional values as written in that document. While those on the American left are seeking to overturn many items in the Constitution, not by amending as the founders had allowed for, but by judicial review. A re-writing of that document by unelected men in a black robes. The old left wing revolutionary patriots who established the Constitution are now represented by the American Right and the new counter-revolutionaries are those unpatriotic forces of the American Left. I did call them unpatriotic, because that is what they are. Because they seek to destroy the work of the first American Patriots by any means possible and to call them anything less than unpatriotic would be a subversion of the truth. Some say most all Americans are patriotic, but sadly that is not the case and has never been. Even during the American Revolution many Americans were unpatriotic and did NOT support the revolution, they were called Tories. Today, yes even today we have the new "Tories" in our mist and they would impose a new system of government on this nation and these new Tories make up the American Left. The new left wing extremist bear no resemblance to the left wing extremist of the American Revolution for these new unpatriotic extremist seek to radically change or destroy the America of the Founders.

We've been in trouble since they stopped teaching this in schools.
You are so wrong my friend, the left is not defined by its desire to revolt and the right is not defined by its desire to defend the government.
The left is defined by BIG GOVeRNmENT and the right is defined by its opposition to such a thing and its reliance on tradition and autonomy/self reliance. This is why it was a BIG LIE to claim that Mussolini and Hitler were right wingers. Mussolini wanted the state to control and have the finalsay in business and the Nazis were the "national socialist German workers party". If what you're saying is right then the KGB in the USSR were really right wingers.
You can't interchange the term conservative with right wing everywhere and anywhere, because left and right are more definitive terms than "conservative" and radical. I think these terms would make more sense in what you are saying here.
The terms left and right, conservative and liberal will always have different meanings at various points in the continuing protracted conflict within the systemic revolution. So one is given some flexiable in using these terms. Sometimes left is right. And without a doubt the new left has identified Mussolini and Hitler as right wingers, although the left of that period would not agree as they saw them as progressives just as they saw the Marxist in communist Russia. The left of that time didn't really turn on fascism until Hitler invaded Russia. I appreciate your comment however---we're not that far apart.
What Odie said. Well you too, but Odie's comments are always spot on.
Have a terrific day. :)
lefties love of changing the constitution by judicial review is only because they're pretty confident of the views of those doing the changing.
Just mention overturning roe vs wade through judicial review and watch as their fawning over judicial review evaporate.
