    Only leaning?

    The political options to choose from are right or far right. You can choose between the republicans 20 years ago, or the republicans of today.

    American is one of the most right wing countries in the world, only surpassed by Israel and Ukraine.

      It’s unfair to leave Poland out of that list. Israel at least has a socdem party in parliament, Poland starts at libertarianism and goes right from there.

        I don’t see what factions exist as important. But who rules. The existence of this faction may be tolerated but the fascists are in power and have been for 50 years where they’ve created an apartheid society and a deeply fascist culture. That is not really the case for Poland, which seems to be in the fledgling stage of fascist takeover.
