true, but not as true as it used to be even 10 years ago, though
>>57340368
Yup
no, not really
>>57340368
Sanders isn't really a Democrat

Bernie is certainly to the right of a lot of Europeans on guns, and is against mass economic immigration because it creates competition with American youths.
Sadly, yes. Our ""right"" is not even really against mass immigration, and our """far""" """right""" is not far right at all. We're doomed.
Sanders claims to be a democratic socialist, even though he's a social democrat
He's a regular centre-left desu, which is unusual for America

My town's voted Democrat for every year since 1988 and everyone calls Sanders a Communist.
First past the polls is pretty much the most idiotic voting system ever
>>57341743
Maybe he used to be one when he was young
He's a moderate desu
>>57341743
What's his program ? I've just seen it summarised as "Free shit for everybody, lol".
>>57341743
why everyone in america thinks communism is the devil and capitalism is here to save us???
>>57342146
Because communism pretty much is the work of the devil.

The cold war. It was literally illegal to make movies or books that said the Soviet Union is why we won WWII.
Sanders would be left here at least, but all the others are center right.

His biggest talking points are raising taxes, particularly on the wealthy, and expanding social services to European-levels, though he's got some points that appeal to a lot of people beyond progressives and students.
>in favor of reducing immigration

We spent three quarters of a century associating the name of communism and a variety of dictatorships in poor countries. That's why.
