Regarding their stance towards Trump and corporations, I don't think that's too surprising - the US left wing is right wing by international standards.

By European standard I would say it's more towards the center, if you're taking about the Dems. Certainly not "left" but surely not "right".

Yeah completely the left from US like AOC, Bernie and Gravel are centre left at best. I am disgusted of China and others but at the same time I'm disgusted at the papers and media not talking about US, UK and many others surveillance states.
I am getting disgusted by how the left is becoming more and more friendly to corporations and traditional media in the wake of Trump. A corporation can never be woke or virtuous. A corporate entity supporting lgbtq rights or diversity is the same as when Hitler supported animal rights or labour standards; Hitler is still evil, and so are corporations.
