Okay first thing: there is no mainstream left in US politics. AOC and Bernie taper off at a hair left of center. I don’t even dislike them. And normally that would be fine, but the right does include flamboyant, and very loud fascists. So the right has no counter weight, and what there is are Centrist Libs, who long for days of “reaching across the isle”, and “order,” and “civility” While people talk about Fascists projecting, the Libs are too, and they think everyone approaches politics that. They don’t realize the fascist uses their invitation to get, and civility as a mask, to play the game, and uses any means they can to gain power, and then disposes of the libs when they don’t need them anymore, and left, like Eddard Stark holding a piece of paper like his dick in the breeze.
This last piece of this is that there is an aspect of the left that matches what you say, the so called “dirt bag left,” streamers like Vaush and Hassan Abi, and Chapo Trap House. They are in fact quite controversy prone, and I don’t think they are good people, but I think they do match the general vibe of your statement.
