If you've never noticed it, you haven't been paying attention for the past 8 years.
You misunderstand me. I am saying I never agreed with it.
Though, honestly, there is something very refreshing about someone who is willing to propose something (a nonsense test) and then declare that it is the exact same as another test with which they disagree.
Either this test was nonsense and proved nothing when the mean ol' centrists were doing it and still means absolutely nothing when you declare it or that the centrists have been correct all this time and you get to be correct once too. Either way, it's silly but kind of adorable in that childish way.
Edit: Also, I know it might be inconceivable to you but I've actually been paying attention to politics for longer than 8 years. I know, before trump made it cool. Weird huh?
Hey, if you want to deny that centrists have been both declaring that progressives can't win in red states and also blaming progressives when centrists lose, it's fine that you want to deny the lived experience of every progressive. Gaslighting and condescension are what centrists fall back on every time they're wrong, after all.
Where did I deny it?
All I'm saying is that it's adorable that you hate this narrative until you find an occasion that suits you, at which point, oh obviously this narrative is true.
So, either the centrists have been correct all this time or you are just excited to have a chance to spout the same nonsense. Either way, not really a position worth taking seriously.
It was true enough for centrists to beat progressives over the head with ever since centrists' candidate lost to centrists' second choice in 2016. It stops being true the instant a progressive says it to a centrist. Unsurprising how that conveniently works.
It's like talking to a brick wall.

I've got better things to do with my time. Have a good day!
Vote blue no matter who, unless that's suddenly horseshit because centrists don't wanna.
Okay, I have to admit I'm still curious.
Is the proposition you outline horseshit, as it was when the centrists used it? Or is it reasonable and thus the centrists were correct?
It's gospel until the instant it inconveniences centrists. Then it's immediately horseshit.
