If you don’t vote for the centrist candidate, you can’t object to the right extremist.
Actually this does track that a lot of what I see online is people who seem unwilling to compromise: neither are what I want so both the same. You need to be willing to vote for the one closest to what you want, and work toward moving that leftward over time.
We had a huge success with “The Squad” getting enough attention before Biden’s first nomination to influence the party platform. As a minority voter, this path is more likely to succeed than not voting

You absolutely can. Voting is not the extent of political action.

You can’t move right-wingers left through thoughts and prayers, this is astrology.

And yet they accomplish nothing and are kept like barking dogs on leashes. The electoral process is a filter, it prevents radical change. See how the monsters treat Rashida Tlaib.
Exactly. If you have to chose between right wing and centrist , elect the centrist and move them a bit to the left. prepare to do this through multiple elections
And yet they accomplish nothing
And yet President Biden is very centrist but has passed some of the most far reaching changes ever on the environment, renewable energy, unionization, etc.
An example of both is climate change regulation. Legislation passed during Biden’s term should get us about halfway to our net carbon goal. A pessimist may focus on that not being nearly enough, but I see a new center, where we can have more success working on more substantial change

The Greens are the centrists, if you’ll vote Green I will. How do you plan on moving them left, though? Thoughts and prayers?

Biden is a right-wing Neoliberal, lmao. He has not passed some of the most “far reaching changes ever” on any of those subjects, that’s an insult to leftists everywhere. He’s a failure on all accounts to meaningfully address those issues.

“Biden failed to do what was necessary, when other countries have exceeded what was necessary. Here’s why that’s a good thing”
