I do think we need to reclassify centerism as some kind of prion disease at this point.

I loved this article of yours when it came out. Are you saying you hope that other candidates bring the anti-Trump game line Newsom so that it doesn’t end up being him, bc when he wins he’s gonna pivot back to the old Newsom like Biden was after the primary? I love this new Newsom

Again, all polls show that abolishing ICE is an incredibly popular position, completely in the mainstream center of American politics. "Centerism" has nothing to do with what's in the center, but is instead an absolute and radical stance against the idea of change

Ive ragged on dirt bag centerism and performative dumb votes, so let me also say it’s entirely clear for a long time in stories, post, and anecdotal stories I’ve heard that the Left has a very bad misogyny problem and this is the time for it to be fixed

No it's that the Democrats have offered Centerism and pretended it's Progressive and nobody wants that, what people want is to have Socialism but call it Centerism

overall, i think a lot of the divides that we still have from the 2016 primary are starting to heal
most sensible people agree that fighting fascism is the main thing & that appeasement (reactionary centerism) must be rejected

but, as i've said many times, one of the defining features of reactionary centerism is a refusal to learn from their mistakes

Liberalism is nearly dead, subsumed into a mythical centerism that doesn't even exist.
