I didn’t mean to make it about me. Undoubtedly there’s fragility driving


Some other than ardent Trumpies to reject any ideas about the persistence of racism/bigotry. My point is there are too many - on the left - who thoughtlessly paint all dissent with that brush.

And it’s a topic requiring frank debate, because I think the entire political spectrum has gone off the rails on this topic. Every time I discuss this here I link this book, with the hope that maybe eventually some will give it a look. It’s a critique from the left of the left’s hyperfocus on identity, and how that is one of the primary obstacles to high functioning diverse democracies.
