Have the Democrats created a machine they can’t control?

I’ve noticed a disconnect between Dem leaders and their base lately. Since the election, many Dems and commentators have made deliberate moves toward the center (ie Newsom, Feterman, Stephan A, TYT, Charlemagne, etc). I think they see polling is against far left priorities. I think they know they have to shift towards the center to win future elections.

Their problem is whenever they shift their messaging they get destroyed by the very vocal minority on the far left. The media sees 1K angry X posts and thinks everyone must be mad at something so it bleeds into media reporting. So they get nowhere other than called names or get threats of being primaried. This all or none mentality was championed by the DNC for years.

Today I think the DNC is trying to slow-roll a move towards the center before the midterms and 2028. Their problem is over the last decade, they’ve drummed up their base to resist anyone and anything to the right of AOC. They know they need to make this shift to win, but they’ve put themselves in predicament where they can’t. The machine they built is coming after their own IMO. What do you all think?
