i think us as leftists should start calling our positions centrist so we can drag the meaning of centrism back to where it should be

Well the majority of Americans are with us on the issues (they just hate the word “socialism”)

We aren’t centrists tho we are leftists. Liberals are centrists. I would say Bernie Sanders is Center Left. What we really should be doing is educating the masses on what leftism and socialism actually is.

You guys are the opposite of centrists. The right as they exist today is literally just the political center as it was in the 2000s. You guys just keep moving farther and farther over becoming more out of touch and extreme. I mean it has to say something that people would choose Trump twice over what you guys have become. The constant racism, sexism, and all the identity politics that pour out from the left is definitely an off putting combination.

- Ending the war in Iran - some sort of national healthcare plan / Medicare for all - transparency in politics/limiting superPACs - taxing the rich These are kinda stuff that 60-70% of Americans support in general.

There are some nuances, of course. I’m not sure you can get that 60 to 70% on stuff like “wealth tax.” Or any specific national healthcare plan. If the politicians make a specific decision, there will always be unhappy people, but you kinda need to drag people along sometimes

Even the average Republican Texan has just gotten sick and tired of the money in politics (because now they are a victim to infinite political ads)
