In today's skewed political spectrum, "Left" is what would be considered moderate in a reasonable perspective.

Yes, my view point is also the most reasonable.

That's one big problem with political discussions, everyone having them thinks their own views are the correct ones. Then there's the problem of politics in international communities, did you know that what's right and left can be entirely different in different countries and different cultures?

It's why I avoid political discourse and I try not to refer to myself or others as right or left.

It's sad for the American infused internet that demanding more worker rights is purposely exaggerated as "left and extreme left" instead of a moderate and reasonable take. Luckily Europe has so much social-democrat development
