I’ve written about this for a while now. The more diverse the Democratic Party became (as well as the overall voting electorate), the more the GOP demonized them.

The media avoids confronting the direct racism of the modern GOP, likely bc it falls for the false narrative that the “left” is just white “woke” college students.

Maybe so, but that polarization will be less toxic if the underlying policies of the nation ensure that ALL working people have a living wage and cannot be made bankrupt by injury or illness.

Part of the problem might be that not only have they, they’ve made peace with it as well. There’s a set of anti-woke Substackers that are smart enough I know they know this, and amoral enough I’m not sure they really care.

Yes, Americans must come to terms w/ the long (and ongoing) history of racism; but it's misguided to insist that we're not more polarized than in past. Compare Nixon's impeachment to Trump's! This argument will confuse, not empower, the crucial cause of racial justice.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

While sailing across the ocean, it's a bad time to *reach across the aisle to get things done* with Flat Earthers. When it comes to resistance to empirical compulsion and denial of syllogistic logic, there is no rational moderate 'middle' — there's no one there to talk to.

I fear we may only re-map whom it is OK to tyrannize. I hope we are capable of something less base and spiritually deflating.
