    Democracy involved compromise

    When was the last time centrists compromised with anyone to their left? All I see is centrists collaborating with the right.

      This right here. The DNC always fights hard against the left and when negotiating with the fascists, they start from a barely acceptable compromise (at best) and give tons of concessions from there.

        And then demand praise from progressives for the “compromise” that is capitulation in all but name.

          Absolutely. Their (DNC leadership) policy objectives might be a lot better (in theory, if not always in practice) than those of the fascists, but they’re lying corporately owned demagogues most of the time all the same.
