And being able to opt in just with a container label is super convenient

I'd love to hear one thing you think China is doing that is bad that the US is not also doing to a larger degree. Please enlighten me.

Pick any city in the Midwest and compare to any proportionally sized city in China. Like just about. Infrastructure is crumbling everywhere in this country while China has built more high speed rail than every other nation on the planet combined.

The priorities speak volumes.

Tell me you have no idea of the history of Tibet without telling me

You are missing my point entirely. I'm addressing your point - it's just dumb. No party is owed voters - they must work to do things to get those voters to support them. The Republicans do this all the time. The Dems do not. That's it. If they want people to vote for them, they need to have a compelling platform that actually gets people in their base excited - like how the Republicans do.

Republicans see their base being transphobic and they throw them a bone on that. They see them hating immigrants and they throw them a bone on that. It serves their interests sure, but it also keeps their base in line and willing to support them on the more heinous things that just hurt them in the long run.

By contrast the Dems see their base wanting things like healthcare or to stop funding genocide and what do they do? They ignore it and double down on the Republican talking points to try and pull some of their voters away rather than just run on the policy that would make them extremely popular and a shoe in to win elections.

Do you see what I am saying yet?

The Republicans feed their base with wins regularly. Sure they don't care about the hypocrisy or whatever as well, but it's also that they are actually doing things for them. Now these things don't really change their lives but it sure makes them feel good.

When do the Dems do this?

Brother you keep saying you aren't these things but we can read what you're writing...

How do you think the Republicans became so powerful in this country?

By being nice and letting their ideological enemies flourish?

No - they take advantage of the vulnerabilities.

Well the Republicans are currently doing whatever they want because the Democratic party has been so utterly worthless for so long.

They can’t fight against fascism in an election and barrel to the right. They can’t fight fascism when they've lost and the fascists are in power.

The Dems deserve every ounce of vitriol they are getting right now they are a fundamentally useless organization that only serves as the slightly less mean wing of conservative thought in the US.

Edit: Also yes you are absolutely advocating for the moderate/centrist liberal approach here.
