For those who don't know, No Labels is a group composed of pro corporalists from various political backgrounds who have no policy other than effectively letting corporations run the country as they please basically a means for the ultra wealthy to start cutting out the middleman between them and the politicians, why need to bribe politicians when YOU are the politician and thus No Labels was born

It'd take them a long while to build up enough brand recognition.

So the people in the service of brands call themselves 'No Label'?

Someone has a sense of humour, at least

If the No Labels party is legit centrist, or even just vaguely center-right or technocratic, they would absolutely be an improvement.

No Labels, kinda like Both Sides, or the Uniparty idea becoming reality.

It's just Trump-likes larping to voters with "I am not a politician."

Oh no, you are. And worse.

So the same economic policies but without the hateful social stuff? It's an improvement at least.

They wouldn't not because of the existence of the Democrats, but because a call to return to the nobility is just flat out far-right. Calling centrist is just a dogwhistle.

I'm assuming that, for this scenario to work, there would have to be a big change in political culture

Not sure what you're trying to saying here, but calling things Centrist is not at all a dogwhistle.

If it's because I used the word Technocratic, that might be my own misunderstanding about the definition of the word.

Calling a place centrist sheerly because they say that they are is a dogwhistle. Doubly so when their stance is listed as generic right-winger in the OP.

What could actually happen, though I truly doubt it, is Republicans fracture into two parties, the far right extremists, then just the far right. But if that ever happened, it'd last exactly one election cycle, because Democrats would win every election with Republicans splitting their vote.

The simple fact is, there's nothing that will bring the far right assholes towards the middle. As we've seen over the last 10 years, they're just going to keep drifting more and more to the extreme side. What will truly decide if the party lives or dies, is if standard voters get behind it or not. As we've seen, the Republican propaganda machine can absolutely get 80 million people to support a racist rapist insurrectionist.

The ideal thing to happen is rank choice voting that encourages party fracturing, so we don't have to with 1 be all candidate attempt any more.
