Im mostly comparing it to the politics of the "left" in most other first world countries. In my opinion, candidates who arent willing to support guaranteed family leave, single payer healthcare, and more progressive taxes, arent very far left.
Of course you could definitely make an argument for that being no true scottsman, so I guess it just depends on opinion.
