Andrew Lebovich added,
There's very little 100% of liberals agree on. Tribe is representative enough of a certain influential type of liberalism that he deserves to be called out.
He's not the only one who thinks like this. There's a pretty big record of liberals overvaluing Republican anti-Trumpists and that's what I want people to see is wrong.
Sure, and it should be called out. But reducing that to “liberals”, while maybe fun for Twitter dunking, doesn’t actually help anyone.
Especially at a time when there are prominent people associated with the left (rightly or wrongly) who end up pushing a red-brown alliance out of disdain for liberals.
I've pretty consistently called out that faction for years.
