Yeah it's going to be a process. The dynamic I see is that people in the mainstream are becoming disillusioned as they see their standard of living continuing to decline while also watching the elites being completely unaccountable. As they fall out of the liberal mainstream, they become open to entertaining new ideas, and that's where people on the left have to step in to help guide their understanding.
I absolutely agree with you on that. Although I see many of them are choosing to be super stubborn about it again spreading the 'vote blue no matter who' bullshit again. Already, before the primaries. I am so exhausted over it already.
Liberals are basically a cult at this point.
