@Lana The problem, as I see it, is that anyone who is "centrist" in this, the Year of our Bob 2026, the clownshow of all possible timelines, is not our friend.
You cannot be a centrist in the face of genocide. You cannot be a centrist in the face of starving American children while billionaires buy yachts to fit inside their other yachts. You cannot be a centrist while everything America has ever built is dismantled in front of you, fed into the voracious maw of capitalist grift.
Those centrists have gladly moved the Overton window to the right and to the right and to the right...always with their compromises and their "let's not revisit the past".
Centrists got us here. We cannot afford to mollycoddle them any longer. This is a fight for our lives, our futures, and chance to fix the rot the centrists have papered over.
