      Liberals in Australia are our right wing hypocrites so it’s tracking for me

        Is the US the only country where liberals aren’t clearly right-wing? I know liberals in the US that sincerely seem to lean left (they agree that capitalism is destroying our planet, that we need more worker co-ops, co-op housing, etc)

      Idk, I find it hard to seperate liberalism from centerism (at least in the US). I know lefties usually argue that liberalism is a right-wing ideology, but there are liberals who sincerely lean left so the party is in a weird place where it isn’t truly left but it isn’t truly right either.
