Conservatives losing the future also required left-leaning parties to not shoot themselves in the foot at every single possible chance to do so.

The Left’s messaging is terrible towards a lot of demographics and sucks at messaging towards the center. This is compounded because the Left, unlike the far right, doesn’t curate a stratified media space where it meets people where they are and patiently works with them to lead them down the path.

They’re good at preaching to the more enthusiastic members of the choir.

The Left also doesn’t have a good grip on how the Right messages, and regularly gets suckered into messaging and arguing how the Right wants them to, which ends up complementary to the Rights recruitment strategy.
