    I assume the title is aimed at that both parties badmouth one another in extreme, cherry-picked and oversimplified ways right?

      The issue is that the US has two right wings parties, with one being quite a bit further right.

      There is no extreme left party in the US.

      There are plenty of people who talk about extreme left ideas, but none of them are elected politicians.

      • The bigger issue is that all countries are fairly right wing. They’re all capitalistic and nationalistic, putting them on a crash course for war and suffering. Exploitative systems just can’t work like they used to. It’s too easy for disadvantaged people to cause apocalyptic damage to those that exploit them.

      It’s basically the whole platform for one party, but sure.
