Christakis probably doesn’t count himself as IDW, but is often mentioned in the same breath, so I was pleased to see thishttps://twitter.com/nachristakis/status/1019260749271748608?s=21 …
Ah, thanks for pointing this out. No, Christakis is too legit for the IDW, like Rizvi.
Obama was a charter member and all these noobs are just getting it. I trollishly posted welcome to the IDW right away knowing it’s not new. I’m genuinely shocked how sincere all the welcome to the IDW posts became, but being super friends must be blindingly exhilarating
The real lesson here is that before anyone tweets anything, they should check your feed to see if you’ve already made fun of the thing they were going to say.
Why do you view this as Obama exposing the IDW? Even if ignorant of Obama's history on identity politics, this is what much of the IDWs criticism comes from. It's cheeky of them to point out how such a beloved progressive figure seems to make the same noises they are making
Cuz their implying as if he hasn't been making the same noises for years.
TBF, while Obama always spoke in universal terms, and was clearly liberal in his views on many issues, he did appeal to less liberal elements within the left to form winning coalitions. Some of his title IX stuff was ill-considered, for instance.
The traces of the ugly, illiberal identity politics, that have metastasized under Trump were there even in the earlier Obama years. I know many activists who worked on his campaigns, and there were some race essentialists in broader coalitions.
I think especially in his second term, once the Democrats were in free fall outside of the WH, and he lost control of both houses, he resorted to Clintonesque pandering to various causes, as a means of fundraising, GOTV. The broader healthcare, economic agenda was first term.
Welcome to the IDW Matt
