lol, what would a centrist party in america be even? Support both Ukraine and Israel? Only slightly fascist? Support trans people's right to exist but only if they stay in their own houses forever?

Democrats on a global scale are right of center already. We do not have a left wing party.

Nobody who says that kind of shit knows what “left” means. They don’t even understand what they mean by “extreme left.”  They’re just regurgitating a talking point used to shift the “center” further and further to the right.

this is the strawest of strawmen. right and left are relative, who decides where center is? you? I can support a groups right to exist while disagreeing with them.

The world as a whole is a concrete example of what right and left is. It is only as relative as the time period we are in, but you can find both right and left defined very well if you look beyond a single country.

I see you post in the UK stuff a lot, so to compare the American democrats are slightly more right wing than the Liberal Dem party in the UK. We don't have a Labour party or Green party equivalent with any political power.

And that pales in comparison to actually progressive countries.
