      I complain about Woke a lot and I’m a dyed in the wool leftist to be fair. There’s a broader spectrum of opinion out there.

        *on american scale. Most american lefists wouldn’t look out of place in russian coalition of right forces.

      What I read is his friends identified him as economically leftist, but took issue with identity politics

        Which depending on context could be as simple as “I dont care ill mind my own business you mind yours.” which I suspect is what most folks opinions boil down to.

          Why do you blame Democrats for identity politics and not Republicans for passing laws based on identity politics?

            Because that’s what Republican voters want and that’s enough for them. They vote on spite and hate and the GOP feeds them it

            Still do it, just don’t base your entire platform on it. It’s not that hard to understand but most democrat politicians can’t

              Agreed there, democrats continue to refuse to challenge their economic masters and try to use identity politics as a sop
