Well that’s essentially what this is saying. Anything that’s not far left is far right. If you think it says something else, can you explain that to me?
The world is not black and white, but there are people who are far right. Based on their politics, their identity and the ways they express themselves.
If you agree with most of Reform UK’s policies, you’re on the spectrum pretty far on the right, that’s just a political fact. But it seems it’s almost worse to get called far right than it is to be far right.
If you largely agree with MAGA, you’re also far right.
But it’s also a fact that the Labour party in the UK, and most members of the DNC in the US are political centrists.
Sure mayor Mamdani in NYC is further on the left. Bernie Sanders also. You could even argue that Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is further to the left,not quite to the level of socialism, but at least Social Democrats.
But Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Keir Starmer? No, they’re nothing like far left. They’re not bringing in socialist values, let alone communist ones. They’re firmly in the center.
That’s what this meme is saying and what I am saying.
The interpretation that you took from the meme makes so little sense to me, that I truly can’t believe you actually believe that.
As far as I know nobody considers liberals far right. They’re just not leftwing.
And most Democrats and pretty much all of Labour are centrists too.
Whereas MAGA rightwingers and Reform UK followers tend to believe that liberals are leftwing and that the Democrats/Labour are the harbingers of communism.
Knowing how it was intended, it’s virtually impossible for your brain to evaluate retrosctively whether it makes sense or has room for confusion when you don’t already know. Obviously I misunderstood the intent, but I’m not sitting here lying to you.

So this meme is talking to far right people, telling them to stop considering centrists as leftists?
I read it as talking to liberals and Democrats, telling them they are not leftists, and if they think they are, they are actually far right.
It’s not super clear.
