What if I informed you that there are more than two options, and they don't have to be extremities? And what if I followed up by informing you that what we have in the US, for a political spectrum, is not the norm elsewhere in the world?

And what if that not only changed nothing, but didnโ€™t refute the post?

My reply was more aimed at the title of the post and its sentiment. "Pick a side"

I'm not a believer that there are only two political options for the US, long term, and would love to see a true political multi-party representation in the US government. I believe that something not completely (EU) far left will prevail in the US. And absolutely not the (US) far right. (Perhaps I'm just being a wishful fool, and the US will crash and burn in the next 1-5 years. Hopefully, we can make it out of this mess without doing so. But if it has to happen, so be it.)

completely (EU) far left

The EU is only "far left" in comparison to the US.

But that's because the US has moved so far to the right that they can't see any other political position from where they stand.

To be fair, I am bad at picking titles. So there's that
