If we can't be bothered to vote in the primaries, wjy would anyone believe us that a progressive candidate would somehow lure millions more to vote?

I respect that, I just disagree. I think my line of reasoning is sound. I'm not pushing people out of political engagement I'm simply saying not to vote for a centrist candidate.

Also, someone would have to understand my comment politically in order to be swayed by my rhetoric. If I'm advocating for left candidates and pointing out why I'm not voting for centrists I think that's a winning strategy.

As long as we agree on two things, I think this conversation has reached its conclusion : 1. That my strategy is to only vote left or stay home. 2. Your strategy is to always vote for the most left leaning candidate even if the party keeps moving right.

If that's not your position let me know.
