Democratic Party leadership has known this to be a factor for decades, and has steadfastly refused to adapt to the existing political reality.
What, that whiny SJWs cannot be negotiated with? Finally we agree on something.
And we know if they gave into the demands of social justice warriors, we’d have to live in a more just society!
How awful.
Oh man, if only there was a way for them to force acceptance of these beneficial ideas. Like getting local reps elected who support those ideas to push the party as a whole farther towards those ideas. Instead of just saying “but it’s for a just society!” Once every four years and then wondering why they never get support.
I agree it would be awesome if we could make a hard shift left and move to a more just society for everyone in it but dreams don’t just pop into reality, there has to be work done and I don’t see a lot of them helping out. Certainly not where I’m trying to gather support for the same ideas. Always “too busy to help” until a presidential election rolls around, which is fucking infuriating.
If only people here bothered to try and understand how nuanced actual politics are and that shit can’t be simplified so easily just because you happen to think in simple terms.
