They don’t see political parties as tools to change the views of the population, they see them as brands that must market themselves within whatever the existing views are to “win” and THEN change the country after winning.

Socialists on the other hand do battle to change the views, opinions and culture of the population itself.

Oh yes. Subs like neolib especially, it’s all about being “electable” according to the voting population’s current whims, never about changing voters’ views. It’s all about being elected… to get elected. That’s why there’s support for people like Manchin in Blue MAGA spaces.
