well someone else (not me) used the word "spectrum", and a spectrum literally has a furthest left and a furthest right on it, like the visible spectrum

when i hear someone say they want someone who's "truly left", i have to wonder what that means, because it's a very fudgy terminology
like your concept of a politician who's "truly left" might be AOC, but the next poster's concept of a politician who's "truly left" could be like, mao zedong, cultural revolution stuff
so it seems like a pretty bad yard stick that's different for everyone
While it's true that spectrums are finite, in that they have ends, spectrums can also change over time, so I'm not sure that actually refutes anything. It feels like you're taking things very literally in order to post dishonestly.
