Well the only people who are talking about stopping at one state are the centrists arguing we must 'compromise' and accept the top only.

I fully support going to both..

Uh...I don't think you've done a check up on where the centrists are lately. Centrists split the difference between the parties, they're over there going "well, healthcare is good, but who's going to pay for it? I don't like what ice is doing, they're hurting too many people while they look for the criminals"

The abundance liberals also claim they want to do the first one, but they seem like a fresh wave of neolibs

It seems like progrssives are the only ones serious about the first one, and they're largely on board with the second one

I think you've still identified that the meme is trying to get at "there's 'left', and there's LEFT." The U.S. public suffers from a dearth of broadly-accepted terminology for labeling these groups, so some group will always misunderstand exactly who you mean.
