Hey, thank you @robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net and Alaskaball! This is a list I slapped together in a couple minutes and is incredibly reductive. Something like "protect the LGBT" is certainly non-exhaustive and capable of being articulated much more cogently. In particular, if you broke down the dem's failings for "social issues" like these you'd get to the heart of why people writ large are disillusioned. Others like defund the police might make a platform if you said that the money was going towards things that are awesome instead without sacrificing safety (on the contrary, long and short term ability to effect the root of suffering/crime). Finally, one might also organize the list so it's not 2 streams of consciousness mushed together (articulating Palestine in 2024 and then "stop war" decidedly before things popped off on October 7th). The purpose was to illustrate the argument exactly as robot did, that there's a long list of issues that tend to get memory holed. So when a blue MAGA's eyes glaze over when you try to explain that genocide is the thing that makes Hitler so bad and THEN they wave away a list of other things dems aren't doing then you really get a full picture of how little they desire to listen to you/help with effectual change.
