Again, progressivism and liberalism (let alone moderate conservativism) are political ideologies. It’s okay to believe in tenets of one and not the other. Watering down progressive values to appease moderates and liberals is not a good political strategy. In fact, it goes against every form of organizing that I’ve ever been trained to use. Political organizing is about meeting people in the middle and finding consensus issues. It’s not about converting people to your team.
I agree. I hope you don't think that's what I'm talking about.
I do think that progressive messages can appeal to people who aren't progressives. It's not like there are walls around ideology.
