US politics has no left. It only exists as very small groups that, when they start having influence, get shut down by the feds.

Is that about right?

Yep.
Have you heard of the fish hook theory?
That repeatedly disproven line of horseshit? Yeah I’ve heard of it. Wasn’t impressed.
It’s never occurred to the “very reasonable centrist” neoliberal free market extremist warmongers that THEY are the insane radicals
