They are now plainly admitting idpol is just an euphemism for non-white Christian.

    Anyone who uses the term "caucusoid extraction" deserves to have his caucusoid brain extracted from his skull Shutter Island style.

      Assuming "idpol" (as if that's even a concrete thing whose qualities are agreed on) is foundational to the left worldview and using it's assumed presence as plaster to fill the gaps in your own material understanding, therefore slowly but surely...making idpol foundational to your worldview.

    This person is asking this question for the wrong reason, they obviously just want to feed their white aggrievement. If they actually care about the question they'd do a little research and realize women and minority candidates do much better against the Democratic machine because Corporate Dems will quickly label a white man as racist for running against a minority or sexist for running against a woman. Can't do that against a minority or woman.

    The smearing of Corbyn as anti-semite is the playbook. Corporate Democrat ideology only allows for representation in elite circles - a black president, a woman general, a trans police chief is the most progressive thing a Corporate Democrat can accomplish. Their ideology does not allow for class politics. We may see their weaponization of identity as callous, but it's the only belief they have.

    If Corporate Democrats didn't own the entirety of the party, then we'd probably see more white males running and winning. But Brand New Congress and Justice Dems realize what they're up against.

      Or how Bernie was seen as having a misogynistic and racist base, despite it being the most non-white, and more female than male.

      People like the Squad confuse the mainstream as they have to find ways to critique her that aren't along the go-to attack line of bigotry, as it is far less easy for people to believe uncritically. Thats when they pull out the "criticism of Israel = antisemitism" and "they're just stupid/inexperienced"

        To be fair, Bernie's support was much whiter in 2016. Still, they took something semi-valid and kept repeating it long after it made any sense.

      A fancy-pants way to say "descended from white europeans" but behind the smokescreen of anthropological textbook language.

    I can't wait for the census results to come back and find out the majority of America is not white anymore

      Eh, this is probably never going to happen. If you count Irish and Italians as not white it's already majorly non-white. It's likely that Latinos will be welcomed in whiteness before that happens.
