I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

Okay but center is third to something relatively more left and something more relatively right. What is it center in relation to? If Republicans are right, then Democrats can be less-right but that doesn’t make them center. And it doesn’t make sense to call them center in relation to leftism, because they are neoliberals which isn’t in any way leftist.
To me and the political theory that I am used to working with, radical means dedicated to the fundamental principles of something, so I’m going to substitute it with ‘extreme’ in my reading as this is a relative descriptor.
I would never, haha. Communists are leftist, but SocDems run a range from liberal to neoliberal which are both right-wing. To make sure we’re on the same page, the definition of SocDem to me Social Democrat which is not socialist. It was started in the 19th century as a right-wing reform of capitalism so as to prevent rebellion and revolution among the poor. It advocates for (neo)liberal market economics with the implementation of a social safety net. They’re my favorite right-wingers but they still support oppressive and hierarchical economics.
Some things can’t be reformed. Why try reforming the market out of the market?
Clearly, we’re starting from different assumptions!
Hah, yes, I can agree with that. There’s nothing wrong with that, though. Thanks for the conversation.
