    Maybe. But your impression of it may be skewed, because there are a lot of non-USA people here. That creste some mismatch in terms that tend to overwaight the perceived size of left-leaning people. But it’s terminology, really. What in USA is considered “left” more-or-less align with what is considered left outside of USA. But what an average Trump supporter call “conservative”, in the rest of the word is simply know as lunacy.

      What is considered left in the USA is largely considered center or center right outside of the USA

        Most current US Democrats are Neoliberal Reagan Republicans.

        US Republicans since Reagan are fucking Nazis.

        Well, it’s a big and heterogeneous “outside” if we want to be nitpicky about it.
