      That “Elitist Left” line really is some world-class propaganda. Kudos, right-guy, your teams propaganda is the best. It doesn’t seem to be possible to construct a sound-byte-level counter to it. It takes at least a paragraph to deconstruct the argument. But a paragraph deconstructing an argument is exactly what an elitist would do. It plays right into the narrative. Even the fact that I think a sound-byte is needed only helps the narrative. It’s really spectacularly good propaganda.

      Problem is they, like many others, are tricked into fighting about culture issues. The robber barons have returned while we fight amongst ourselves.

        Didn’t read the article, huh?

        That’s the problem.

        Great article, written by a anti-Trump leftist, for other leftists, on what went wrong regarding the working class support, but getting leftists to read it is damn near impossible.

          The problem is people don’t read articles bigots post in comment threads? lol You make it impossible for yourself. You shouldn’t be surprised people aren’t interested in reading your recommendations when you openly spew hate. Trans people aren’t hurting anyone by wanting to be their authentic selves, they aren’t a problem. Bigotry is a problem, it hurts people while distracting from the robber barons exploiting the working class and the environment.
