I used to be strictly materialist and atheist. Now I’m pretty spiritual. Don’t necessarily follow a religion and don’t support bigotry but yeah, I’m fairly spiritual now. This is a recent development and I never thought I’d be here like 5 years ago.

I once thought the Democratic Party in the US was liberal. Now I realize they’re slightly right of center (with some exceptions), and there really isn’t a truly liberal (or leftist) party of any note.
It depends on the lens you’re using to look at the situation:
Would you argue that the Dems are not Progressive Liberals?
They are leftist depending on the definition. Classic left-wing was simply anti-monarch, pro-republic. In that regard the Dems are left wing. Are they Communists/Socialist though? lmao, absolutely not. They are WAY too focussed on social issues, in general.
As a European the Dems strike me as very pro capitalist neoliberals but definitely not as liberals. They get along with anyone if it’s good for the economy. Freedom isn’t something they actually value that much.
ew, neoliberals
The political spectrum is subjective. In the US the Dems are centre left.
They might not be left enough for you and that’s fine.
First of all, no. But second of all, your spelling of “centre” makes me think you’re not from the US. Maybe you don’t know more about our political parties than we do.
Depends on if you’re looking at a specific issue or overall. If you’re looking at some specific issues like say trans rights then the dems are center-left, but in the overall total tally the dems are center-right, and the repubs are far-right
