The discourse on American politics sometimes devolves to “Leftists who won’t vote” & “MAGA Republicans” teaming up to “getting revenge on liberals”.

    I understand needing to eat the sandwich. I also understand making a collective first-past-the-post choice individual is a flawed argument.

    However there is an individual component to saying I really can’t eat peanut butter. The decision then becomes stand your ground (no peanut butter), compromise (just a little peanut butter) or protest (full peanut butter; see you in the ER). The claim is the compromise is best.

    How do we reach a point where we no longer need to compromise on peanut butter?
