That’s why I’d rather call myself center left. By US standards I’m still probably “far left”, because I’m for public healthcare, strong regulations and very robust social safety net. But unlike probably most people here on lemmy, if someone runs a business that’s not completely out of control and has unionized employees, I don’t think there’s a problem with that.

Being able to protest the government you don’t like is also how democracy works. Unless you do any disturbance you’re perfectly allowed to express your opinion even if in the minority.
