The problem is that it further cements Team Blue mindset. In other words - even in a very low stakes local race I think the dems are even less likely to vote for anybody left of Bernie. Libs will think if not say out loud - "He's not a republican. But he's not really one of us either. How can we know if he's really on our team?"
I haven't been getting that from a lot of libs IRL but I defs see the danger
I spend way too much time at Bluesky. And the people there that are clearly libs have an online mentality so they aren't run-of-the-mill libs. But I think in this Trumpian era - to badly mix metaphors - Team Blue mindset is bred in bone.
