It's almost like running to the center doesn't convince those on the right of anything. No matter what you do anyone left of McCain or so will be a radical leftist. May as well be an actual leftist

Always has been the case. IIRC, back in the 40's during an early 'Red Scare' in the US, a massive union purged a lot of members that it suspected of being communists/communist sympathizers to try and appear as though they were not too leftist.
The union was accused of being communists anyway.
Sounds about right. If there's anything to learn from politics in the US it's gotta be to just announce actually that you are communist and that it's good actually. No playing games of defending against bad faith accusations.
