He’s definitely not radical left, but he’s the most pro-union president since at least Carter. Yes - I’m aware of the rail strike fuckery… are you aware of the stuff he’s passed?
I believe he’s the greatest president since Wilson.
He’s definitely the best president we’ve had since FDR, and that’s just sad.
I’m genuinely very happy with Biden’s first term. He is left, he is dangerously close to being a Social Democrat. If any antitrust action happens in the next year, I’d label him that. He is currently walking a very fine line of giving people leverage while also handsomely paying capital for following along. Its like he has paved the path for them to do the right thing.

What aspect of the private economy has he socialized? He is progressive for America…but that doesn’t mean he’s a leftist. Unless you are willing to actually have the state socialize a market from private industry you aren’t “left”.
It’s debatable if social democrats are anything but center left, most socialist believe that profit motive will drive social democratic states to slowly repatriate state assets to the privet market.

The people already have the leverage, the only thing he’s done is stay out of their way, unlike what he did with the rail workers.
Again, I’m not saying he’s terrible compared to some of our recent leaders, but it’s sad to think people believe he’s some warrior for the workers. The man has been in the higher echelons of American government for the last 50 years, and has a pretty awful track record.
