    I criticized the opening blurb which added nothing to the article beyond being anti-American. I guess your reading comprehension failed you, because I already stated why I used the CNN article. It’s near identical to the article it predates, which raises some questions.

    Center by some standards, sure, but certainly not right leaning. Maybe your political stance is more fucked, hence your confusion? We can just add that to your lack of reading comprehension.

          CNN is a byproduct of American politics. Only a US psyop would try to convince people that the Democrats are anything more than a moderate party at best.

            Or you’re simply talking to an American who has an understanding of US vs EU political standings. At least you are finally agreeing with me that, yes, by EU standards the Democrats are more center than left.

            The issue was you claiming they’re right wing. Lol

              So… CNN is a Democrat mouthpiece? Maybe they’re calling for the Dems to be more left-wing?

              They’re a moderate news source along the US spectrum, making them center-right along the global spectrum. I stand by my statement, but I don’t think we’re disagreeing much.

                I guess you’re not even familiar with them since you stick to this narrative yet ask basic questions such as that.
