When people say things like "The right falls in line"
"The right worked hard to change the supreme court" etc.
I think the purpose is to inspire the surly youths to engage in electioneering with more joy & enthusiasm. But you're just legitimizing efforts that were often undemocratic.
It's like bootstrap theory but for the overton window. Just work harder and you can move it!
We will need to work hard, but I prefer pragmatism about the asymmetry of this game.
