      Liberals can’t fathom that anything is left to them, which is weird since most liberals are slightly right from center - which includes most of the democrats.

      But the goal post moving and McCarthyism in the US has turned their brains to mush, so they wouldn’t know why an ideology is placed in a certain part of the political spectrum and why theirs is technically “conservative lite” (fiscally and economically speaking, ofc - social policies is another subject).

      “But the democrats have progressives!” Please. Token off-lefties who play ball and perform in front of podiums.

        True, our Presidents are mostly now just conservative or conservative lite.

        I am not sure how liberals don’t see it…

        Thank you for your explanation!
