Matty correctly understands that the nationalization of media and edpol has meant that this dynamic no longer works; people in Nebraska do actually vote based on what they see on TV about Baltimore. His solution to this is to establish a Leninist vanguard party-style control over all Dem policy.
The idea that Democrats should adopt nationally popular but locally unpopular positions in locations where they have supermajority control of politics makes no sense. That's exactly where you should implement correct policies that the rest of the country nonetheless dislikes!
