    Centrist democrats love to guilt and shame progressives any time progressives try to leverage their support in order to get anything they want.

    Even if it’s just the slightest shift or adjustment, the center left seems to always go right to “oh so you’d rather the Republicans win if you can’t get your way? This is bigger than you. You need to put your selfish wants aside and just support the things we want. Maybe after we get all the things we want and have all the power, maybe then we can consider some of your priorities, but until then, we’re entitled to all your votes and support simply by virtue of being slightly less opposed to you than the conservatives”.
