Remember when it was just conservatives silencing academics for speaking about civil rights and against human rights abuses?
Now forcibaly quieting moral voices is a one of the only things that gets bipartisan support.
I mean, Biden did fight school busing to end school segregation during the day and hang out with Strom Thurmond at night…
And he spoke against people protesting for civil rights back then too…
There’s always been “moderate” Democrats who oppose social change, it’s just when we start simplifying things and calls everyone just Democrat and “vote blue no matter who”. Those assholes start running the show.
There’s a lot of very rich people who want to make sure that’s as far left as America has the chance to go.
Plus, even Donald Trump could get the Clinton’s to show up to his wedding for well less than 100k. Lots of shitty people donate to these “moderates” just to buy their way into the cool kids club and help public appearances.
Despite some of them, well, being Donald Trump just like 20 years ago.
Not everyone is on our side because they have a D by their name at the moment.
