[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sick of the identity politics from Dems and the GOP. Trump was all-in on the nationalism/white/christian junk. Democrats are all now all-into hyper-racialize politics of the Black/White variant.

I'm relatively wealthy, but willing to pay moderately higher taxes. I want police reform, but not defund the police. I want my kids to learn about racism, without hyper-racialize curriculum where everything and anything is racist. Inflation pisses me off. And, I'm sick of seeing my subordinates slack off at work, while I work 50-60 hours a week, as they demand larger and larger pay raises.

I'll either vote Republican or not at all in 2022 and probably 2024. Someone will call me privileged, racist, or something else. Your knee-jerk response is exactly why people like me will cause Biden and co to lose... and lose big.[/quote]
Turn off Fox. [/quote]

I don't watch Fox, but Liberals constant cartoonist view of moderate Republicans is exactly why you will lose in 2022, then blame it on racism/sexism, then lose even more in 2024 before you get your act together.[/quote]

This is the Republican cartoon view of Democrats.  How many House and Senate Democrats have promoted racializing the curriculum and defunding police?  1% if that.

Yet you want to base all of your voting decisions on that completely distorted caricature that Republicans have painted for you?[/quote]

If you live in or near a major city, which is most of us, you know there's a massive creep of CRT theory into school curriculums, the push to shut down gifted and talented tracks in the name of equity, open talks of rezoning, and in the urban areas, very progressive politicians and organized progressive groups that pushed hard to defund police, and at the same time you see in the papers that police numbers are rapidly declining while crime is shooting up and many cities are seeing record murder rates.

On the national scale, the Democratic party *has* embraced CRT because they don't criticize it, they authorize funding for CRT programs, they promote it in the Federal workplace as part of training.

It does make you wonder if you are a Democrat why would you pretend otherwise? Because isn't that what the Democrats are all about. CRT, 1619, identity politics, national pronoun days and all that. It's a big part of the Democratic identity and the pursuit of the progressive good. [/quote]
