This is 100% true and people here won't want to hear it.

We lost and we lost BAD. I want to be reasonable and learn WHY we lost.

Just sitting here screaming how everyone is racists and sexist, is juvenile and will cause us to learn NOTHING.

However fucked up a vote for Trump was, it's more damming that people chose HIM over our candidate.

Trump GAINED black and Hispanic voters, so just screaming racism ain't it.

Fairly or unfairly, the Democrats are burdened with the baggage that they care more about identity politics and policing language than actually fixing anything. That's what I've learned.

We've got a big echo chamber here, and most of the shit we discuss here doesn't resonate with the majority of people.

We're more concerned about people saying "unhoused" than actual homelessness and how to solve it.
