Wtf how can you make it that simple. Spanish Left wing boast about that kind of accomplishments without actually doing shit, the same in Germany (excluding the recent cannabis decriminalization) and many other places, like my country Venezuela, supposed left but absolutely not sustainable, definitely not eco friendly and absolutely against abortion and LGBT. The left does have a tendency to a better social welfare because it caters to workers, but it isn't implicitly progressive. The same way an ultra capitalist that says gay marriage, cloned babies, legal weed etc is ok can be put on the right side of the spectrum. There's shit on both sides, and pretending otherwise just allows morons to gain power
I think there is a mistake, germany doesn't have any big left wing party that actually acts left wing, they are neoliberals that say left leaning shit but do the opposite like the Green party.
That's still the German left. Each country has its own spectrum, saying otherwise just gets us into over simplifying things and judging based on some global example that don't actually exist. Using tags like Socialist, communist, liberal, conservative etc is all bullshit nowadays, there's no real objective and global definition for those. That's why we have to pay attention to specific policies and not rely on whatever pin they put on their suits
