You say progressives aren't on the far left but in the center. I say progressives are defined by their position on the far left. We're talking about two different things. Also you seem to be using two different spectrum, or really segments of the spectrum. Steve is calling communists the far left, well they are obviously to the left of groups in the US that would be called or consider themselves progressive. But self identified progressives in the US, are to the far left of those that have a realistic ability to gain political power in the US.
