Note that "left" in the USA would usually be considered centrist or only slightly left in Europe.
As a dane, US left is more right than our right-most parties.
I think this is where my disconnect and perhaps even some unintentional disbelieve in these types of conversations comes from. The political landscape feels like a completely different world to me. It is easier for me to study, say, the political landscape of China or India because the culture is so vastly different from ours. USA always feels close in values and everyday culture to Europe, yet so completely different too.
You don't necessarily know how left I am, though
Hah, true.
