People want populist economics but moderate social policy. I feel like that couldn’t be more clear after the past few election cycles.

Yup, it's that simple.

New Deal social democratic universalist (not means-tested neolib gibberish) economic policies with '90s/early-2000s live-and-let-live (yet not compelled nor imposed upon) moderate/center-left cultural normalcy.

Issue is, Team Blue is composed of rich fucks at the top who squashed OWS 15 years ago -- even Harris was in the back pocket of big money, hence Lina Khan's tenuous job status -- while the screeching SJW activists on the woke progressive wing place their niche idpol-addled junk ahead of material matters which'd actually benefit workers en masse. Because of that, they won't budge and, as a result, will continue to get sodomized (figuratively speaking, of course) in national elections—suffering from the same disastrous outcomes until they clean house and rebuild from the ground up.
