    1. This chart is worth pondering: the Democrats are working towards gender parity while the Republicans are becoming more male. The gender divide is taking on a new dimension.https://twitter.com/DaveAHopkins/status/999134084864663552 …

        2. When thinking about the gender gap (as well as the racial divide) it's worth pondering path dependence: decisions made in past foreclose future possibilities & set political parties on a trajectory.

        3. Once Goldwater's GOP made foundational decision in 1964 to oppose civil rights, path of national party was hard to escape: they were beholden to white constituency which meant any attempts to diversify would be risky.

        I wouldn't trust that old way of thinking. Times are changing, quickly.

        The chart is a good indicator of the ideological acceleration of the Democratic party since 2016. The pursuit of parity (gender or otherwise) is a reflection of the leftwing view that the ruling elite assigns meaning to society, and that individuals do not exist outside of that.
