There are left leaning blocs within the Democratic party too. The coalition governments that formed as a result of voting against fascists, Magyar, Zelenskyi, Macron, even Merz were all centrists leading a large coalition of pro-democracy politicians.

And the genocide wing does everything it can to oppose them instead of opposing the actual fascists centrists want to be.

But the left has terms for joining those coalitions and are offered something in exchange. In America, they won't even give us purely symbolic concessions line a Palestinian speaker at conviction.

You're really trying to sell the ascension of genocidal demons like Merz as a reason to vote for liberals?
