Can you explain why 1980 Democrats were far right?

  1980 democrats were left back in 1980, in 2022 they are far right republicans

    If 2022 democrats are far right republicans, what are 2022 republicans?

      2022 democrats are far left not far right. for 2020 republicans, just shift 2, they're just moderates

        You joke but you are not wrong. One could argue actually they were nazis before that. Repubs and dems switched platforms awhile back though. People need to read up on the dixiecrats. Nixon turned them back into republicans though.

  They weren't. The alt-right seeks to erase distinctions so all things mean whatever they want at the moment.
