The democrats refuse to appeal to republicans? In my experience, trying to appeal to republicans is one of the bigger reasons the democrats lose elections.

    "Democrats" lose their entire audience when they try to "bridge the gap" or "compromise" with people that their actual base view as fucking insane.

    It ends up being vote for the fascist, or the person that wants to negotiate with a fascist.

    1/3 of the country is independent. they are the swing voters. you have to appeal to them.

    that's the funny thing about winning elections... you need to get people to vote for you to do that.

    the people who voted for Obama, voted for Trump.

    insane lefties are the majority of the posers on fedi. they existing their own fictional universe that everyone else who isn't them is a nazi/extremist. and it's just a reflection because they themselves are often the most nazi-like in their desire to use the force of the state to impose their will/values on everyone else.
