While Nancy's actual politics may be more centrists than dem, shes still one of the old guards that must go away for any actual change in the party.

    Dems are a far right party that only look centrist if you squint looking at them from inside fascist crazy town.

    To basically anyone in the developed world, of which we are not, Luigi murdered a mass murderer, to any fascist or neoliberal here, we have to let murderers for profit let the free market decide who gets life saving healthcare, as just 1 of innumerable examples.

    Neoliberals don't squee like little girls at the hello kitty store when people suffer and die needlessly when it facilitates private profit as the Fascists do, but they don't see it as the social fabric betrayal and atrocity it is either. "free market forces, mr dying homeless person, but I support your right to die in the gutter of hunger and exposure as any identity you choose!" Because it's free to, but people need their basic survival met first, and that takes resources that go to them and not the robber barons that pay off both parties.

    agreed. In context, they're centrists for the States. Bernie is only barely left of center to the rest of the world but considered extreme here by corporate media and the other government clowns.

    When people say dumbass shit like this it makes me wonder what part of the world they are talking about.

    All of Africa: right wing compared to America

    Most of South America: right wing compared to America

    Pretty much all of Asia: right wing compared to America

    Middle East: lmao

    Russia: lmao

    Europe: about 70% right wing or similar to America with a handful of countries that might be considered left wing maybe but are sliding right as well.

    The British Commonwealth: about the same as America except for the healthcare aspect.

    Maybe you consider Antarctica left wing? Maybe the Oceans? Maybe the only part of the world that exists to these idiots are uber white Aryan nordic countries only? Or maybe you live in a fantasy dimension and are somehow communicating to us through a wormhole via Lemmy.

    Europe is absolutely not as you describe. That's what the media feeds you in North America.

    Spoken like someone who cannot speak a single language outside of American English, who has never met a Western European. We are not a monoculture.

    Quite a lot of assumptions you have there and still not one real refutation of any of my points. Lol.

    You make one point, over and over. So, I refuted it, with a single point. If you don't understand, that, well.... think of it like this.

    There's no value in explaining spark plugs to my dog, but she can still hang out in the garage with me while I change them.
