Funnily enough that's an analogy I've applied to how progressives vs. right-wingers think in general. Our culture is like a ship that's gone so far out to sea in the name of progress that we can no longer see our home island. The Left are now captaining the ship and assuring everyone that a brand new land of prosperity is just over the horizon. The Right realizes we've been lost for a long time (and that the progressives know it) and are desperately trying to get the passengers to wake up and help turn us back around.
Meanwhile you have sleepy normies who are just enjoying the cruise and mad at "the radical right" for rocking the boat.
