I think that we keep misunderstanding each other and i can’t figure out if its intentional. I am pretty sure that this is about the two party system and none of them being on the left
I thought the gist was about the supposed deterrence of potential “left” aspects of American culture as present in the individuals, which is mutually exclusive from the situation in the American leadership (especially if they don’t fully represent the people, which I don’t disagree with), especially if they aren’t the only positions of influence.
There is a similar discussion in Mexico… you have the leadership which is historically “left” while the grand majority of the population is historically “right”, all before they get mixed up with America’s “left” because that’s the association they have when you run into debates about closed or open borders. Several EU countries come to mind as well, many have locked-in systems that contrast with the people. The two parties in Canada (because most countries have two parties) are both significantly more “left” that the people, but nobody there is saying there’s “no true right”, so why do we say America has “no true left”?
