      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.

      Identity politics will be the downfall of democracy if Democrats don’t stop that bullshit

        The problem with that is that oppression injustice, and inequity are often based on a person‘s identity

          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

          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
