It absolutely isnt, democratic party social policy side wouldn't fly even in the most liberal parts of Europe.

Sure,but this isn't Europe and neither is Europe a gold standard of any sort.

The US is the outlier here though. I don't think any other country's political norms would describe the US Democratic Party as "far-left".
Describing any policy of the dems as "far-left" is just nonsense. It's used as an insult rather than to further actual political discourse.

Let's see
- Decriminalization of theft (now overturned via prop 36 in California) - Wealth redistribution via wealth taxes, unrealized gains taxes etc (Kamala policy proposal) - Support for anarchist movements (support for Jihadist elements, 2020 riots etc)

> Decriminalization of theft
Take all the issue with prosecutorial discretion that you want, but don't pretend that an adjustment in the misdemeanor/felony threshold by $450 means theft is no longer a crime.

Far left is when they appropriate property from the ownership class and hand it over to the workers. Not increasing taxes, lol.
The democrats, by european standards, are about as centrist as it gets.
