It's not hard to understand why appeals to the "center" (which just means the right wing) come at the cost of votes on the left. This seems baffling to many of the "political strategy" minds on here whose apparent plan is to have their cake and eat it

I'm going to do something and nobody can be mad at me

One of the drivers I think is that there's a weird tendency to look at political issues as problems you solve by yelling at voters instead of addressing to the candidate or politician.

"If everyone had simply voted correctly, my plan would have worked flawlessly"

It's frustrating to watch play out over and over - when someone (usually a trans person) objects to a decision or statement made by a *candidate or politician,* they get swarmed by Election Methodists freaking out about *voter* behavior
