      America's crumbling at its core but yes, by all means, do go on about the "importance" of college brats & silly academia & "sjws". 🤦🏻‍♀️🙄

      When they start influencing workplaces, censorship, and even law, it becomes everyones problem. Which is exactly what's happening.

      Good point about priorities but I think the rise of the illiberal left not only remains a serious issue but is directly related to Trumpism.

      Absolutely. It gives the reactionary right something really solid to react to & loses the Left reasonable centrists, conservatives &leftists

      But why would the left ever contain the groups mentioned there?

      Trump should have been an excellent opportunity for the Democrats to have gained centrists & reasonable conservatives

      And yet sometimes the Democrats win & sometimes the Republicans do suggesting that a considerable number of people can be swayed politically

      In theory. But US politics is pragmatic, not theoretical. It's simple, predictable, & dumb. But it's real & no place for thought experiments

      What do you mean? What thought experiments? Why not addressing the extremists &the reasons ppl give for voting Trump? Is this not pragmatic?

          I'm honestly not interested in answering. I don't mean any rudeness. I just don't see why this is a discussion worth having

          I honestly mean no rudeness to you at all. I don't care to answer a ton of unnecessary questions, though. It's really demanding.

          If they say the Left is promoting identity politics, dismissing concerns abt Islamism, threatening free speech, why not address the source
