Progressives are popular, and the elite, entrenched Democrats fight them every step of the way. This belief in centrism as the answer to Democratic wins is unproven and questionable. I think it maybe comes from commercial pundits and entrenched politicians who are comfortable with centrism - and who, coincidentally, make their livings being paid by corporate interests. I still think Bernie Sanders might well have won the 2020 election if not for the "centrist" conventional Democratic candidates and pundits who ganged up together to defeat him in the primary.
Gen Z voters, who saved the Democrats' bacon this year, are the future of the party and are more progressive than centrist. Stop holding them back.
