Great food for thought. I think it is worth working across party lines (but not with extremists) on very specific issues...while retaining one's usual allies on most other topics. Persuasion did a piece on how interest groups risk failing to meet their central objectives if they take on too many (adjacent or otherwise) causes. They also risk losing bipartisan support.

Someday someone will write the history of EL PAIS, including ideological changes. I was very surprised by this article: not the content (which considers inclusive language an imposition) but because it was published in the newspaper. There is still hope for old readers of EL PAIS.

(I do not think there is an English version published, sorry).
