worldwide, I would put most people on the right side of the American left/right. there are a lot of people in south asia for example. china and russia are conservative as fuck also. without looking at a wikipedia table I think that’s probably most people already.
Western Europe is pretty leftish I guess, but it’s not a lot of people
There are a lot of countries where being gay results in prison or death
In my country (one where its technically illegal to insult people based on their sexual orientation), a candidate that wants to make civil unions legal for same-sex couples is considered left-wing because of that
you are thinking of the western countries, not the world. most of the worlds population is not in the west. most are living in highly conservative societies where the social progression led by the western world is decades behind.

The American “left” is on the far-right of almost every other country in the world. Not right, not even center. You need recalibrating
