they don’t want us to do it because if we are successful then the overton window will shift back left, and the “centrists” will have to face the music that their delusion of “being on the correct side” will shatter. They don’t want to be the new conservatives because then they won’t have the mantle of being “a good person” by proxy.
Like they are unaware (some of them are coming around thankfully) that they can just accept that it’s government’s actual job to make life easier for its citizens.
If your elected official sees themself as a leader first and public servant second, that “leader” needs to be changed like the diaper they are. (regards to Mark Twain)
They don’t want it and they’re trying to stop it. If I thought they could stop it, I might suggest a different strategy, but even the useless candidates who make it are having to fight for it.
