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.
It's a terrible sign for Democrats that she believes this is the lesson to be learned. It's insane that she thinks they're going to win more elections by continuing to push left. They're pushing the moderates/independents (the ones who really decide the elections) away.
The young are significantly farther to the left. If the party runs has-been corporate Democrats like McAuliffe it will lose because he doesn’t represent the progressive change needed in society and demanded by younger voters. More candidates like AOC and Ayanna Pressley are exactly what is needed to drive the young to the polls and finally make the country a nation that works for all, not just a privileged few. It’s your “moderate” Dems like Manchin and Sinema who are standing in the way of progress.
Also, you sound old.

Left transitioned into a party who obsesses about white rage, white men, Karens, white supremacy non stop.

You are exactly who needs to hear his message. But you won’t. Because you’re convinced you’re too cool and too above it all. You’re deluded.
Whatever, pops!
