The US doesn’t have a real “left” movement. It has a center movement at most. Most posters here are talking about economics - which have little to do with “woke” anything.

By the "original movement" I mean Woodrow Wilson and such, which was not neo-liberal. The modern progressive movement is still left-leaning, at least by American standards (yes, quite different from European).
