There was no discussion. There was me saying “America has no communist party” followed by several people saying “you’re wrong, there’s no far-left party in America”
It was a giant misunderstanding and distraction, not a discussion
Ok. You still ruined the thread by removing your replies. This is disrespectful of the ones you had the misunderstanding with and any others joining in afterwards.
… Why would I allow a misunderstanding to be perpetuated? People don’t have a right to read something just because it was there at one time. And it kept happening because people were only reading one comment in isolation without reading the prior context. Like, I replied with “in this context one of those is far left and the other is far right” and a third person came in with “there is no far left in us politics” which is exactly what I was saying, they just failed to read the prior comments.
It was only getting worse so I simply decided to stop it from progressing because I wasn’t about to sit there explaining over and over again the same damn thing.

Well, that’s not true.
We say it because both US parties are very similar, and both of them are very right leaning compared to the rest of the western world.
It also indicates that’s there’s no democracy in the US, because there’s only really one choice.

Which major US party is far left (on a global political scale)? I must have missed them somehow.
Our Overton Window is crazy right at this point.

There is no far left mainstream political party in the US.

Deleted because people can’t fucking read, apparently.
I was literally saying the exact same thing as what is in the replies.
I’ll simplify:
USA no have real left party. Real far left party communism. No American communists. America bad. Communism good.
Do I pass the purity test now?
Way to ruin a discussion and appear even worse than you did while discussing. How old are you?
