You are not winning anyone over with your rhetoric in your first posts
Oh I am though, I promise. This is the one thing I do know without a doubt, because I've watched the entire narrative completely flip. And I know whose minds have been changed and I've seen how severely weakened the ABWD/ Blue MAGA side has become. I'm also not basing this off one thread or one comment, but all of them, and the complete shift in narrative we (its not just me) have been able to drive by being right in the first place and consistent with where we place our criticism. We made these critiques before it was obvious they would lead to failure; we made them while the process was leading to failure; and we make them again, now that the process has been demonstrated to lead to failure.
We may not be winning over those who are so irrationally committed to a team sport their brain is broken, but what matters now isn't "winning them over"; its inoculating the rest of the community against listening to them. Those people are lost, broken-brained individuals, those are Blue-MAGA, and like traditional MAGA, its a cult we can't really expect their heads to ever become fully removed from their own asses. But there are two outcomes to consider in this case. Either A) we don't need to worry about those voters, because, if they are truly blue MAGA/ ABWD, they'll just have to vote for the candidate who is going to speak to a populist progressive agenda and get along. Or B) they are voters you were never going to be able to rely on in the first place, and assuredly shouldnt base your campaign around. In either case, basing campaigns around them is a surefire recipe for disaster, as we've seen, repeatedly.
To your other points, they are entirely straw men and not worth responding to. You are effectively doing exactly what I'm accusing Blue MAGA of doing. Its a effort to use group identity to silence criticism of that identity.
