Do you notice you misportray again? You vote for change. Sure it might be a little change until the Dems are sure they can keep winning, but that's how change starts. Like, see the original post again.

Carter wanted to change things. And he got voted the fuck out.

So Clinton learned to go to the center, and he won.

Gore wanted to change things and ran on environmentalism. And bam he lost the election.

So Obama learned to not say anything. He ran on vague hope. But he did the ACA. And what was his thanks? To lose the House of Reps, then again lose the house of reps, and then to lose both the house of reps and the senate.

Clinton said she'd have a map room to fight climate change. And bam she lost the election.

So Biden learned to stfu about environmentalism. And he won. But Biden did green energy anyway. And what was his thanks? Polls said he was going to lose.

So Kamala also learned to stfu about environmentalism and pretty much anything progressive.

That's what the situation is. The Dems go to the center because everytime they look left they loose. How do you make things progress? By giving Dems consistent and overwhelming victories.
