    Could it also have something to do with the fact that nowadays what’s called “the right” in the US are extremists and what’s called “the left” are center-right/right wing?

      Maybe. Seeing some of the follow up commonts, it feels more like a no true scotsman fallacy.

      “You can’t be left without being extreme left” “the left doesn’t do moderate left things!” “Thinking about money proves you aren’t left!”

      As if wanting anything less than a money-free socialist utopia yesterday isn’t left enough.
