Perfect anology, you are talking about two very similar parties that are both part of the interchangable mainstream establishhment. If you want "far left" you have to look at one of the many fringe parties you have over there which end up with a miniscule vote in elections.

So for US politics, the critical measurement is really distance from the US center. Nothing else matters, and other countries and where we land relative to them doesn't matter—not even a little.

Perfect, yet you are choosing to ignore US politics and US political parties to get that measure which is why the "far left" claim is pure nonsense.
