My theory is that most of us are caught between hard line leftists and useless centrists. We want real social justice and a mixed economy that favors equity over efficiency. We are not ideologues but want policies that work to protect people. That’s not sexy, but it’s sane. Tap into that and win.

Nobody in US politics is considering seizing the means of production. It's a branding problem.
No city has defunded the police. There are a total of seven socialist mayors in the US now, and maybe 30 in living memory.
I hope What Needs To Be Done will be a persuadable platform, but first they'll have to be reassured that it's not communism.
And we do not have a fox news to dictate a single hardline idelogy that everyone must follow exactly.
