      I don't wanna say this is all there is to it or they're exactly the same But this is why so many young cool liberals were utterly shocked by Reagan's massive landslide in 1980, because the same affect that inherently turns their stomach is what regular Americans deeply cravehttps://twitter.com/nberlat/status/1256326675387674624 …

      why is Biden popular? name recognition; promise to go back to a time when most Democrats felt things were better (and they certainly were better than right now.) seems like a safe option in a time of a lot of uncertainty.

      "but how could we have lost? We yelled about how we wanted to burn everything down and start fresh!" ...well, friend, the problem is a lot of folks have a lot invested in what they have right now!

      A lot of progressives liked to beat the drum that both "Make America Great Again" and "America Is Already Great" were terrible slogans, that the correct view is that America was always trash and any chance of actual greatness can only come in the distant future

          On the facts of the matter, they are right But this message is extremely unpopular and makes people dislike you on a personal level

          Bernie didn't even actually say this, but the perception that he was saying this, and the glee with which some of his surrogates said it, probably played a role in that hard 30% ceiling his numbers ran into

          Yeah, it's like "America was always bad for minorities!" And, yes, this is true, but *also they are minorities* who traditionally didn't have much power and still don't! And it turns out that doesn't win elections!

          A lot of leftists are fundamentally myopic, either because they think they've Got All the Answers, or bc their social circles (bc of personal safety concerns and marginalization) are so small and relatively monolithic they don't need to even consider a majority exists.

          I mean, HRC ran a campaign of "America is fine just the way it is" which will drive turnout down among PoC, lgbtq folks, pretty much anyone not white or straight. Like, there's gotta be a happy medium between "don't fight the status quo" and "MAGA".
