What the OP’s question is referring to is whether or not there is an organized political movement of any real size or structure that represents leftist ideology (which at minimum I describe as anti capitalist). In the 2 major parties, there is not. Full stop. Of the lesser parties which have a snowballs chance in hell of actually getting real power? Probably not. Greens bad Dem Soc are not explicitly anti capitalist as far as I’m aware.
There are certainly what might be called organized political movements of that kind, even if they aren’t at the top of their game, which like I said resembles the Roman analogy I gave. There will always seem to be something that sticks to the leadership, something that sticks to certain commoners, and things that are unlike either one to do. It’s a democratic republic, there will always be the unsung people, this isn’t striking or anything to be ashamed of. All have different supposed degrees of conceptualizations of capital, which isn’t uncommon even in Marxist countries, many of which retain some aspects of that policy sphere, something I say in connection to where I mention how intrigued I am that “left and right” is a scale while each individual policy is built on “yes” or “no”. You may have heard the common adage “China is becoming more capitalist while America is becoming more socialist”, and the American Democrat Party was in fact in one of the Communist Internationals if I’m correct.
