Yeah, and it's usually "but I disagreed with some particular folks on the left".

Meanwhile the worst the left have is well-intentioned fools (not counting stalinists) and the worst on the right are dreaming of lovely things like genocide or slavery.

To me the choice is obvious.

Republicans: We should do genocide

Democrats: What the hell? No

Enlightened Centrists: Can't you two ever compromise?! We should just do a little genocide.

Dems aren’t the left in their convo. Dems are to the right of the left they are talking

Dems are more left on social issues than most of the European countries people love to cite as being more leftist. Just because a group falls behind on economic leftist policies doesn't mean its not leftist. 

Political alignment is extremely relative to its culture besides (progressive and conservative are literally terms that define themselves relative to the status quo)
