'''Leftist''' refers to someone on the far left side of the [[political spectrum]], perhaps initially a [[moderate]] but then more [[liberal]], such as a [[progressive]], [[socialist]], [[communist]] or a particularly liberal member of the [[American]] [[Democratic Party]].  A leftist supports collectivism, more government control of the economy, direct government control over social policy, including Federal control over education at all levels,  lower [[military]] spending, censorship of religion, a [[Living Constitution|living constitution]], [[Same-sex marriage|same sex marriages]], a more unisex society, [[globalism]], [[transnationalism]], taxpayer-funded [[abortion]], and [[censorship]] of [[Christianity]] in public places. The term leftist was first coined during the French Revolution, largely in reference to the revolutionaries. However, the name origin has been debated to be either a reference to parliament members who occupied the left side of the room or derived from a passage in the Book of Revelations indicating those damned to Hell as goats for not following Jesus as an example of radical fevor.
