Neither party wants to usurp capitalism

You've found the crux of their argument

Well most Americans don't want to usurp capitalism either, most of us on the left just want public health care and a viable social safety net, and a more equitable economy for everyone, not just those at the top. Something like the Nordic model which is still quite capitalist.

And look how the nordic countries also fall victim to far right parties. Just like the rest of Europe.

You're not on the left if you're a capitalist.
