Honestly I think people are overplaying the "Academic Left jargon poisoned us against working class voters" a bit. Sure a lot of people roll their eyes or don't like Lena Dunham but at the end of the day:

a) We ran a deeply unpopular candidate.
b) The campaign assumed MI, PA, and WI were automatic locks and either did nothing to turn out those votes or bungled it bigly, narrowly losing to an equally unpopular candidate.

This is primarily a story about political malpractice. No one gives a poo poo if one small section of your supporters are tweeting at each other about intersectionality as long as you're also persuading them to join your side.

Not really, SJW culture plays into the article posted a couple pages ago by that blog poster who predicted a Trump victory back in January. You can claim it's just a very small minority (even though it's pretty common on college campuses these days), but it feeds into the entitled upper class narrative that the article talked about, and thanks to the internet, millions of people can see that behavior, you don't have to be enrolled at Oberlin to witness it. This is why the alt-right became a thing and why they intentionally try to provoke people into silencing them, which gives them martyr points for Trump voters.

Mister Fister, most people don't actually care about PC Gone Wrong. Your candidate won with a minority of the popular vote in an election where less than 30% of the population turned out. Just gently caress off with this poo poo. You're never going to live in an America where you can get away with bald racism anymore among your peers, whether or not Trump got elected.

Who is 'my candidate' Mirthless? Are you seriously trying to say that because i'm not a fan of SJW culture that i'm a Trump voter, even though you know for certain that i'm a Bernie supporter? You don't have to be a racist to see how forcing trigger warnings on everything, censoring speakers/ideas you don't like, and making sure you use the correct pronoun (and holy poo poo are there a ton of them) for a particular otherwise you'll get eaten alive is off putting to a shitload of people.

The only thing worse than the people who won't accept Hillary was a lovely candidate are the fucks with buyer's remorse ITT either pretending they didn't vote for Trump (after weeks/months of saying they were going to) or trying to distance themselves from the fact that they voted for a dude who was a huge and open and unabashed racist and white supremacist, openly buoyed and supported by racists and white supremacists.

I don't care what your reasons were; You will never live this down and if other liberals are smart, they will take their lessons from this, learn and act on them, reach out better to the people who voted for Trump, but they will NEVER forgive the people in their immediate personal and social lives for the horrible loving thing they did, because there needs to be consequences, esp. in their peer group, for voting for Trump.

Search my history and show me where i ever said i was going to vote for Trump. Hell, even search that specific quote in my red title (hint, it doesn't include the part of me saying i'll vote for Hillary). Mirthless, you're wrong like 90% of the time and you're projecting hard, believing that everyone who criticizes certain segments of the left are unabashed racists who probably voted for Trump.

My objection was to a poster saying that it's an incorrect assertion to say that people who voted for Trump have low opinions of minorities and women; This is not an incorrect assertion, it is a statement of fact. If you voted for someone whose stated position is to round up 14 million people into internment camps, punish abortionesses with prison terms, and roll back our most basic race protections, you do not care about women, black people, or the gays.

It is possible to acknowledge somebody did something for a good reason without downplaying the weight of the terrible thing they did.

My objection is you blatantly putting words in my mouth that i never said or meant and then implying that i voted for Trump when you have no proof of that. You're basically the roadblock to a healthier Democratic Party. I've only said i would vote for Sanders, and then grudgingly vote for Hillary when it was apparent he wouldn't win the nomination.

I mean there's a lot of Trump supporters out there who have legitimately never done anything racist in their life (prior to tuesday night, anyway) but whether or not you are one of Trump's supporters you are not one of those people so I don't know why you're being coy about it now

This is, of course, a microcosm of what the media did when they assassinated Bernie's character indirectly by calling his supporters sexists and racists.

I was always more on the socialist side than the neolib side, I was just too committed to the party to not support Hillary when she was clearly going to be the candidate. I've been a rabid Democrat for as long as I've been in politics. I'm not doing that poo poo anymore.

FWIW I still blame Bernie for losing the primary, he made some of The Dumbest decisions early in the primary, kind of like how Hillary made some of The Dumbest decisions late in the general. The whole year's been a shitshow for Dem campaigning. Both candidates were just groping around in the dark while Trump had a clear strategy he never stopped executing. We all mocked him because it was a bad strategy, without considering we didn't have any strategy at all.

If only Bernie was a power hungry sociopath with the foresight to campaign in places like South Carolina several decades ago.

one interesting perspective this article made me think of:

https://twitter.com/wikileaks/status/796222841612042240?ref_src=tw

if you supported hillary as the safe candidate over bernie sanders you literally are responsible for trump. it was hillary's bright idea to make trump her opponent and she couldn't pull a win off him. if people had gone all in on bernie, it might've been JEB! vs bernie instead of idiot vs trump and we would almost certainly be in a better position today.

The hillaristas in this forum and outside of it were too busy patting themelves on the back over their 401k's and their jobs in finance/silicon valley to really be scared of a Trump victory. Ironically, white privilege from the left did us in.

This reminds me of how vigorously zoux accused me of being a sexist for making the obviously objectively true statement that Hillary got to this point because she was an influential First Lady.

It was clear the entire time that Hillary being a feminist icon was transparently hollow, because there's more than enough historical examples to prove that having a woman as Head of State is not a good in itself. Hell, she was Secretary of State and she hosed that up too. Young women needed more than just a symbolic victory for their gender, and it cost the election.

I mean, zoux is the person that accused a black goon of not being black (and the guy had to take a picture of his arm to prove he was), so his opinion is completely worthless anyway (like a lot of hillaristas here).

We can talk about the positive work that can be done to engage with working class whites without burning the party down or throwing progressives under the bus. This doesn't need to be so goddamned agonizing as some people want to make it.

I mean, if she lost to someone like Mitt Romney, that'd be one thing, but she lost to Donald 'grab her by the pussy' Trump, which should have never happened in a million years.
