Opposing fascism isn’t far left. That’s just being a decent person.

The US doesn’t really have a far left. It barely has a left. What MAGA calls left tends to be rather center, like the position that people should be able to afford healthcare.
"Radical left Joe Biden" will never not be funny.
also "left media" never has a foothold in the MSMs too.
Advanced strawman. Opposing fascism isn't far left. It's just not-right.

What if I informed you that there are more than two options, and they don't have to be extremities? And what if I followed up by informing you that what we have in the US, for a political spectrum, is not the norm elsewhere in the world?
The political spectrum in the U.S. omits leftists entirely. Both Republicans and Democrats are pro-capitalism and pro-U.S. imperialism.
And what if that not only changed nothing, but didn’t refute the post?
My reply was more aimed at the title of the post and its sentiment. "Pick a side"
I'm not a believer that there are only two political options for the US, long term, and would love to see a true political multi-party representation in the US government. I believe that something not completely (EU) far left will prevail in the US. And absolutely not the (US) far right. (Perhaps I'm just being a wishful fool, and the US will crash and burn in the next 1-5 years. Hopefully, we can make it out of this mess without doing so. But if it has to happen, so be it.)
completely (EU) far left
The EU is only "far left" in comparison to the US.
But that's because the US has moved so far to the right that they can't see any other political position from where they stand.

Too bad there isn't a political party representing "The Left"
I wish Americans had leftist politicians half as cool as the right likes to pretend they are.
Centrists are actually with maga, they just don't wear the hat. See Fetterman, Schumer, Jeffries, etc
I'll summarize something I said before:
Democrats will hurt you for money, but Republicans will pay for the privilege. Both parties subservient to capital but there are still meaningful distinctions. Change must come from the bottom.

Far left citizens may oppose fascism but their leaders aren't doing a good job of it. America needs a better left wing party.
Yet another poorly made fallacy meme. Is there a bot just crapping out this same template every few days?

Why does the left have to keep being represented as long hair, man bun hippy types?
Yeah, I'm a balding hippy type
I mean..... I'm not in a position to disagree with it.

We hate centrists. Everyone hates centrists
Yeah, both are too loud and impeding the centrist ability to go back to Brunch lmao
Brunch: May or may not include stuffing their own pockets
From a Canadian instance, really? This shit is so frustrating to see. The whole two party nonsense that this bullshit pushes is exactly why the usa is in the mess they are in now.
No, people don't have to "pick a side" the ones who think in terms of teams are our enemy.
The problem is not there are two sides. The problem is that there is only one side with 2 parties with the rest left unrepresented.

How about we stop pretending that the left doesn't have its own share of emotionally damaged asshats and try to pick leadership that solves problems instead of pandering to one side or the other?

i think the "current far left" supports authoritarianism, so not the opposite, just different flavor of the same side.
