Not in all cases as I said between a radical left and a right-winger you might be better voting for the radical left but why I say to be wary is because of the Horseshoe Theory

If you were to say progressive leftists is where I'd be all for

Horseshoe theory is utter nonsense and not worth any kind of real consideration.

well you're entitled to your opinions but you don't seem to try to argue in good faith your points to favor your reasoning

If it helps, i have a political science degree. No one takes Horseshoe Theory seriously. I'm not arguing because there is nothing to argue.
