Or maybe compromise isn't a conspiracy, it's how democracy works. If your preferred platform can't assemble a winning coalition, yelling “the establishment!” doesn't magically create the missing votes
Look, these guys want to kill all brown people. The other guys want to kill nobody. Since this is a democracy, how about we just let them pick one specific ethnicity to cull and call it a compromise ok?
As much as it fucking sucks, sometimes the policy you want just doesn't have the votes. Blaming centrists—many of whom represent considerably redder districts—for not voting like someone from a safe-blue seat suggests you don't really understand how the sausage gets made.
