You position is certainly a valid one. For me, we first need a conservative party to deal with rather than a party who insanely worships nothing but egocentric power with absolutely no ethics or positive values. I do believe a large part of the problem here is the two party system. The two parties are both moving to extremes and leaving a huge portion of the constituents in the middle with no representation. President Biden is being a President for all Americans including those in the middle which I like a lot.
My politics are pretty far left, so from my perspective the increasing conservatism of the Rs has dragged D's inexorably to the center. Whereas I agree with you that the Rs have become increasingly radical in their conservatism, I don't see the Ds doing much at all that I would call extreme. Extremely wimpy maybe, but that's about it. Not that I think they're wrong, considering the moment we're in, but the "both sides" argument that you make is not what I see.
