yeah but you're calling dems leftists just like republicans do lol "radical leftist joe biden" type shit.That's what I was saying...
I think I understand the disconnect in discussion.
Very much agreed
individual voters are indeed leftist, theres many and only growing in numbers. however the furthest left any of our representatives go is straight up the center.
think about how right wing we are as a country when someone who occupies the objective center between socialism and capitalism on the L/R economic axis of the overton window (like pre-2020 Bernie Sanders), he's immediately derided as a radical and a far leftist because even the democratic party is so far to the right that they'd rather lose than win with someone like Bernie. and it's only gotten worse. Biden is to the right of Reagan on some issues.
