So... not much has changed? (Semi-joking obviously)
Americans (can't speak for others) seem to use the word to signal basically they support the Democratic Party but also want them to be "less corporatist." Which is a pipe dream.
They generally are pro "good things" domestically (free healthcare, education including college, making housing more available to end homelessness, etc.) but are ignorant of or, imo, actively refuse to acknowledge foreign policy aka USA's genocidal 8 decades long policies towards the third world and total commitment to not actually letting humanity progress. Also, the domestic policy is nebulous ranging from a Bernie style "everyone is covered, no exceptions" to... whatever fuckery the insurance companies tell Obama or Hillary, etc. to push on any given day/year.
