    The US does not have a left-wing.

    I can think of Bernie Sanders, that is a left moderate. But he is really an exception.

    because the establishment does not give a fuck about the health of the common people

    And that’s a radical position. It’s not even radical on the individualist-socialist spectrum, it’s completely out of it.

      I agree that this position is “out-of-bounds” radical, making the US just as hostile to the welfare of common people as Russia (best example from the last days: shooting down a drone passing over a densely populated beach instead of a mile further inland causing 7 dead and around 20 wounded civvies, and then abusing the pain and loss of these people to run anti-Ukraine propaganda)
