What if I told you the typical Biden voter and Joe Rogan-style Bernie-to-Trump voters represent two DIFFERENT "centers" (i.e. neither group can be identified as strongly ideologically committed to either the traditional "left" or "right") and they're largely mutually exclusive

Being “apolitical” doesn’t make you the center of anything... except that pretensions to being apolitical and the belief that one is the center of the damn universe both correlate with an over abundance of structural privilege.

They've ALWAYS been "centrists". They just pick and choose which issues (and people!) "count" snd which ones don't. But seriously they "compromise" all the freaking time.

"White millionaire podcasters who live in NY are the real swing voters" is a pretty galaxy-brained take. Of course, the real point is that they represent Real America, not like those Dem sheep who live in the South and in big cities.
