dems stranglehold on education is root cause of lack of opportunity for working class and poor

that seems extremely un-nuanced.
-
well I only have 140 characters ;)! Trump voters have been passed over in the 08 recovery bc they don't have req'd edu to get jobs
-
the fact that tech is so centered in the cities, and is the best way for low-education -> good job doesn't help either.
-
and I don't think enough tech people are engaged with community activism. They trend more toward Peter Thiel mindset.
-
that hasn't been my experience -- in my experience people haven't been given something concrete to do that would help
-
hmmm interesting. I guess other groups have taken it upon themselves to figure it out. Tech is white privilege ergo myopic
-
tech has given itself a belief that it's struggling with the great issues of the day but hasn't found good tactics.

And why is it unilaterally incumbent upon liberals and progressives to find common ground?
-
I don't think that question is very useful. Looking for symmetric interest in empathy before you can get going is a good way 1/

to fail before you even get off the ground. Sometimes you gotta go out on a limb and show some empathy. Hasn't failed for me. 2/2

Well said. I hope to find some reluctant Trump supporters.

Serious question: How are blacks, immigrants, gays, etc supposed to find common ground with the tidal wave of hate we're witnessing?
-
don't find common ground with the hate - find common ground with the two-time Obama voter who voted Trump *against* the hate.

it's hard to care about people that consistently abuse you. My move to the left was a move out of abuse, but we abandon either.

Remember there are many people in rural areas abused as you (and I) were. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFB7-zkrqZ0 … "You've got to give them hope"

I totally agree.
