    If the voters punish democrats for not immediately bringing utopia, it will ensure a slide into right wing fascism.

      You should punish the Democrats when they act like conservatives. If you don’t, you don’t have ideals, you just like rooting for a team, and you might be happier following sports, not politics.

        But you don’t understand the difference between “not being Leftist” and “being conservative”. There’s a big gulf between those two.

          You’re talking in vagueries and I’m dealing in specifics. Address any of the concrete examples I’ve given of the Democrats taking explicitly conservative positions or just stop.

            No, because as soon as I talk about one you’ll just immediately pivot and move the goal posts to something else. I’m not dumb. Getting into specifics is a trap. You just cherry pick things to set a false narrative that’s not representative of democratic politicians as a whole.

            The end result is that every politician must be perfectly in line with everything you want, with no compromise, at all times, or they’re just as bad as the people actually opposing you. Which is why Leftists never win elections. No politician is ever good enough for you because politics involves compromise.
