I know that this is going to fall on deaf ears, but a big reason that the right has been so successful in pushing their agenda in ever more extreme directions is that every time they start a moral panic, liberals concede immediately that their made up problems are real.

Weird how it’s always the right they concede to. It is weird, right?

I don't think it's going to fall on *deaf* ears, so much as it's going to fall mostly on the ears of people who already completely agree and just aren't sure what to do about it.

Every surrendering joke about the French should be instead about bipartisan liberals.

By saying "yes your imaginary problems are in fact real and here is our solution," even if you think you're being less extreme than them, you basically concede away any capacity to push back, while giving them the power to say "this doesn't go far enough" and increase their demands.
