I feel like a key distinction people don't get about politicians is that most of them aren't dedicated to centrism, they are dedicated to staying in office and think that being a centrist is what will do that. Show them this isn't true, and then they change their tune because all they care about is being re-elected.
You are totally right, I’m not a fan of the Democratic Party but I think a lot of leftists don’t understand is that the democrats aren’t really ideologically committed to centrism, they are ideologically committed to staying in power. So they are centrist because at least since 1992, Centrism has won them battles. now maybe the left can do a better job, but if we keep throwing hissy fits and not voting that isn’t going to do much for them. Not voting isn’t how you win elections, voting is.
Now there is a problem in how...ideologically inflexible most centrists are. But you can take advantage of that, Biden doesn’t really have a core ideology, he represents the party. If the Party will support left wing policies, he will and that is all we need in the short term, while we prep for 2024.
