A lot of people don't understand how this will be all that impactful, so let me explain:
Go find and watch some random "on-the-street" style interview about a controversial topic. Like one where the interviewer asks random people if they support masks. You'll bound to see a lot of people answering like "I don't know, I don't really mind them, if they save lives, I guess I support them."
These people hold these loose views because it is all they are exposed to. These are your typical lefties, these are people that are largely apolitical. They want to fit in and don't want to rock the boat. They lurk Twitter, but they don't engage much, so you don't see them.
When they see nothing but extreme leftism on Twitter, it's all they know. We need to be able to show them that having vaguely leftist views is rocking the boat. We need to show them that there is another side and it's not just "extremists."
