Wish it was this mild. Centrists are more like "Hmm, how can I get the votes of the bigot? A riddle for the ages." And "Why can't those assholes complaining about affording healthcare shut the fuck up, they're breaking my concentration on how to win over the bigots".
Centrists hate the left but will take their vote. They are horny for the right and will abandon any left principle of it'll get their vote.
Hence Kamala running a Republican campaign.
Much more like we would love to help with these leftist plans, but when the people asking for them storm off in a huff if they don't get promised a day 1 soviet utopia they're seen as entirely unreliable. When the 'left' run off because 'you blue maga are no better than fascists' how is anyone meant to even try and help them?
Yeah allowing even a single Palestinian speaker at the DNC, with vetted speech, and a promised endorsement of Kamala is really a lot to ask, what were those tankies thinking? Even the smallest step in the direction workers rights or not doing genocide was one too many for the Kamala campaign. The democrats rightly lost by pandering to billionaires and oligarchs rather than courting voters.
