[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can see all the previous posters continue to plug their ears and blame RW talking points or take the AOC explanation that young voters didn’t show up because the agenda wasn’t sufficiently progressive and that’s why democrats lost.

Stop.

Just stop.

Stop the singular lens of identity politics through which your party must view all things. Stop labeling everything white supremacy, or sexism, or the patriarchy, or basically elevating grievance culture to the fore, and pushing lack of self accountability to the background, and blaming external forces out of anyone’s control as the sole reasons for peoples problems. Stop trying to redefine or cut funding for policing in violence plagued communities. Stop using academic jargon in your policy language and getting mad when the average American doesn’t factor in intersectional feminism into every issue, when they just want to buy affordable gas and educate their children. Your focus on the rights of like tiny swaths of the population is going to fk you in the elections. I don’t care how hip you want to be.

Your candidates also lost because parents are concerned about the watering down of Gifted and Talented classes programs, or math education, or “punctuality” or basically that you lost focus of teaching English, math and science and decided to focus more on humanistic concepts and social injustice. Bother are important issues. Racism is terrible. However, people are not just perpetual victims that you can infantalize as John McWhorter succinctly notes. People are fed up with your histrionics and sensationalist bs. Get a fking grip.[/quote]

Prepare to be called a "racist."[/quote]

I see that racism is really taking up real estate in your head.  You scream it for everything even when no one is thinking about it.[/quote]
