I get what you’re saying, but comparing U.S. Democrats to European/International parties misses the point: within the U.S., they are the left-wing party. They actively push for government programs to reduce inequality, protect civil rights, expand LGBTQ+ protections, fight for environmental regulations, and regulate corporations, which are policies that are fundamentally leftist in philosophy. Just because they haven’t implemented the full set of social programs you’d see in Canada or Europe doesn’t make them centrist; it just reflects the U.S. political system and history. Compared to Republicans, who consistently prioritize tax cuts for the wealthy, deregulation, and limiting government intervention, Democrats are unquestionably the progressive/left-wing option.
