If you're referring to the American left, it would be incapable of mounting a great tide of anything. At most a gentle lapping or soft drizzle.

You just endorsed Carrol Cox's comparison of the U.S. to Nazi Germany. Like I said before, the U.S. role in the world is full of contradictions, both murderously repressive and sometimes liberating, as is U.S. society itself. There was nothing contradicctory about Nazi Germany. It was 110% bad.
