I mean, I think most people can recognize "give an inch, lose a mile" from having learned the hard way if not how obvious it is. That's why even when they are right, people don't want to support them as their solution is also a problem.
And I actually agree. In retrospect, I would not have supported homosexual marriage, because it just moved the ball further down the field. But the art of politics is deciding which issues are ones where you're moving the ball further down the field for someone else. I don't see how that would be the case here.
Also, I'll just add that most people did not make this argument, but rather 'THIS MEANS FEWER JOBS FOR NEW YORK'. Which is true, but not an argument in favor of special tax privileges for Amazon.
The same way most people can see the obvious problems with Cops in this country, from the gungho militarization to the inability to have any accountability. But if you even begin to agree with the ACABs on those points, they will make the situation far worse.
Depending on the race of the person shot, I'd say there is too much 'accountability', or rather railroading.
Almost anything AOC would do would simply put more laws on the book that would be loopholed for corporations and then exist entirely to punish small businesses and drive prices up for the rest of us. Very little actual damage would be done to hurt those who actually do need to be reined in.

I'm aware. I think its become reflexive, wherein they know subconsciously the problem and immediately just jump to resist. In this time they are quite susceptible to the first explanation they see, which is always dumb shit from Right wing Grifters, and they end up sounding stupider than they are. T_D was filled with "right, with the wrong understanding" for years because of it.

In the majority of cases, there really isn't. Chauvin was surprisingly not only because of how laughable the case against him was, but that he was a very rare exception. Even the "dindu nuffins" getting shot isn't enough to break their circled wagons most of the time.
