You do not have any "left" to speak of. You only have fascists and neoliberals.

I 100% disagree with that statement. I might be in a bubble, but I'm in a bubble of amazing, kind and helpful people who go out and help the homeless, volunteer, etc. Community is first.

Neoliberalism is a political and economic philosophy that emphasizes free-market capitalism, minimal government intervention in the economy, and the belief that economic freedom leads to social progress. It advocates for policies like deregulation, privatization, and reduced government spending.

I was referring specifically to your two party system and the errant belief that one of them is somehow "left" when it is a group of turbo capitalist corpo swine lobbyists which are only the better choice because they are not straight up fascist kleptocrats.

yeah, the left has been systematically eroded in america, and what's typically considered "left" in america today, is actually center-right (i.e. capitalism with small social elements in it).
