Double Plus Ungood

The very Orwellian French preSS, always quick to make use of its favorite bogeyman -- the "far right" (extrème droite) -- every time it attempts to drum up something sinister, has completely forgotten that there is a no less sinister "far left" (extrème gauche). Curiously, the "far left" has vanished from the official State Party Line©® vocabulary, and has been replaced by "the left of the left" (la gauche de la gauche) and "anti-capitalist left" (la gauche antilibérale).
