I think you’re conflating leftists with democrats. They’re two different things. However, I strongly agree that our two party system sucks and that every election is basically a lesser of two evils one.
Generally, most democrats are neoliberals, which you could argue is either center left or even a right wing ideology. But yeah, it’s just a minor point.
I CRINGE WHENEVER SOMEBODY CALLS ME A LEFTIST.
I MAY PRESENT THEIR SIDE AT THE TIMES I'M IN AGREEMENT WITH THEM.
HOWEVER I DO NOT LOVE THE LEFT. I SIMPLY FIND THEM LESS DETESTABLE THAN THE OPPOSITION. I MAY HOLD MY NOSE AND VOTE DEMOCRAT THIS NOVEMBER AND FEEL VERY LOUSY WHILE DOING IT. EGOS ON ELECTION DAY:
