Progressives in a nutshell. They will be upset with the status quo no matter what.
Even if Bernie was nominated and elected, progressives would have turned on him within a year, because he wouldn’t have been able to get policy passed without major concessions, which would then alienate the progressive base for not being perfect.
They will be upset with the status quo no matter what.
I’d love to hear about a time when the status quo was such that progressives shouldn’t have been upset. Everything progressives and leftists care about is trending in the wrong direction and moderates are just like “you wouldn’t be happy with anything”.
You are correct. People expect big sweeping changes and are upset when it doesn’t. What people need to realise is that it’s like a rudder on a giant ship. If you keep voting left then you slowly move left. Which also means any time the right wins we stay on course or move further right.

“If you don’t like our hellscape status quo then you’re just looking for perfection” - out of touch democrat stans
So you support genocide, but you’re mad that progressives don’t?
Really? You believe that’s a good talking point?
Wow.

Prove it.

People need to take a long term view.
We aren’t slowly moving left.
Yes because only 4 years ago you voted in a right wing candidate. “I keep turning left then turning right, why aren’t I going left?!?!”
I voted for Biden in the 2020 general.
Yes but we need to convince more to get out and vote left.
Until you actually look at the rudder and realize it’s not connected to the electoral system at all.
I’m gonna borrow this, very succinct.
