Are you forgetting to include a dishonest leftist that “solves” all the problems with policies that only increases them, or are you calling the leftists “centrists”?
Except the US(I don’t know other countries politics) doesn’t have any leftist politicians except maybe Bernie. If their first goal isn’t social policies and their second goal isn’t expanding personal liberties(civil rights, women’s rights) then they are not a leftist.
It always makes me laugh a bit when people describe neolibs as leftists lol. Then I just feel dead inside at how common it’s become for people to confuse centre left liberals for leftists (or even centre right in a lot of cases, especially the US)
Yeah, it’s depressing but not really surprising considering the deliberately poor political and historical (and otherwise) education we’re generally given, and the media (also deliberately of course) muddying the waters with modern day McCarthyism…

Yeah it’s the old “No True Scotsman” fallacy.

Bernie is really very centrist by European standards.
Lmfao, the Overton window is waving at you from all the way over to the right…
“Leftists”… 😂😂

What are we talking about here?
You see,the only true left is marxist lenonism all else is actually just centrism. /s
now i see where the phrase “democratic centrism” came from
Oh look… a right-winger that couldn’t recognize a leftist if one where to bite him in the arrse is whining about leftists.
Yawn.
