It’s insulting how hard the Democrats are pushing a sex pest who killed people during Covid just because his primary opponent is a dem-soc. How can anyone make progress with ‘allies’ like these?

Democrats pretend to be progressive the way Republicans pretend to be Christian. Just a virtue signal that can be jettisoned the instant it becomes inconvenient to power.
If Dems are trying to act progressive, it’s only in relation to Republicans.
I think most Dems try to appeal to actual conservative values. It’s non-intrusive, light on protections, nothing that might make the average voter uncomfortable (no reparations, no medicaid for all, no major police reform etc). They’re pretty vocal about it. It’s just that their opposition is fucking terrorists that hate most of their own country.
The political compass is wrong.
Democrats are centrist, conservative. Republicans are right wing, regressive.
The two sided layout is just no longer applicable, and labelling all right-wing crap as conservative is incorrect.
There is a blatant attitude of regressive notions, and it’s about damn time people call it out for what it is.
I mean that’s better, but you’re still ignoring several other axes
It’s never been a single continuum, and it’s not a quadrant. Your takeaway isn’t wrong, but there’s so many more options
Well, yeah. That’s what liberalism is, and always has been.
