    What you’re saying is correct, and coincidentally why the US is such a messed up nation.

    Let me follow the Elon trend with an illustration:

    Extreme Left ______________________ Normal People w. Leftist Beliefs ______ Center ______ Normal People w. Right Wing Beliefs ______________________ Extreme Right
    

    So when you have (only) two democratic parties in the system, you might expect it to be

    Extreme Left ______________________ Left Party ______ Center ______ Right Party ______________________ Extreme Right
    

    But the reality is the Left Party can get way more votes by being closer to the Right Party. It’s not like Leftists are going to vote anything but Left, right?

    Extreme Left ______________________ Normal People w. Leftist Beliefs ______ Center _____ Left Party _ Right Party ______________________ Extreme Right
    

    And then you find yourself bombing a bunch of countries most American’s can’t point on a map.
