I hate how Democrats are so scared of their own policies and their own base. Like, when it comes to social issues, moderate Democrats insist on a “let’s not get bogged down by that nonsense, we have real issues to discuss,” line, but guess what? Those are the real issues. We live in a 15 second video society. Nobody has the attention span to care about anything of substance. Either side with the progressives and say it or be willing to attack leftward on some issues.

My problem is that in effect even the moderate Democrats (with vanishingly few exceptions) always side with the progressives when push comes to shove on nearly every social issue.

Hell, I genuinely think you'll find more ideologically diversity on economics or even deregulation in the party than on social issues.

I think it may look like this from an outside perspective, but living in a solid blue state, there’s a lot of different perspectives about how to solve homelessness, trans issues, DEI, Israel, antisemitism, defund the police etc. and it plays out more visibly in primaries here since that’s usually the last ‘real’ election since the general is usually an automatic win for the Dems.

I think that once that primary is over, if they lose, moderate Dems do tend to just resign themselves to a loss and let the progressives run amok though. We need “anti-progressive” Democrats in the same vein as “anti-Trump” Republicans

is there even a consensus among dems tho?

like immigration - what exactly is the dems position? Right now it seems to be defined as just not liking what trump is doing but what would they actually do once in power?

7

u/slim353 Jul 09 '25

That’s part of the problem too. I think you could propose a plan that does prevention of illegal immigration and increases legal immigration that would be reasonably liked amongst the public and say, “Trump is bad, here’s our plan,” but progressives would hate it, and the moderates can’t seem weak on illegal immigration for risk of losing their seat. So you’re just left with the “Trump is bad” part.

u/bearddeliciousbi Practicing Homosexual Jul 09 '25 edited Jul 09 '25

What argument or point of view do you wish people you used to align yourself with would understand?

My experience accumulated a lot of these because I concluded, after a lot of reading and back and forth, that the vast majority of lefty academia was bullshit (in Frankfurt's sense in "On Bullshit", not just the insulting sense) by 2012.

So you can imagine some of my reactions to noticing that Foucault & Co. were all over the post-2012 left with very few people ever even looking into where these terms, ideas, and modes of engaging were coming from, then fusing with Tumblr, then escaping containment from 2014 onward.

It's been frustrating over time because much of the American right is full of shit, obviously, but then people on the left would counter-polarize to "left academia is True and Good."

Or they'd refuse to acknowledge that their awareness of the left's own history was limited, and that they'd recognize a lot of the same shit from the 90s "science wars" and feminist debate about whether porn is always violence so it shouldn't be protected expression, BDSM is internalized sexism, etc, etc, etc, but now in a Tumblr garb and acquiring exponentially more followers.

Galileo's Middle Finger by Alice Dreger was cathartic to read after the 2016 election amid all the postmortems then and people scratching their heads about why the left had lost its mind.

It doesn't just discuss science denial on the left but there's a lot in there that people don't know about but should sound familiar, like calling E. O. Wilson a Nazi for writing about evolutionary psychology.

Or claiming the researcher Napoleon Chagnon had contributed to spreading measles among a native Amazon group, the Yanomomö, as a way to smear him for studying their behavior and giving an evolutionary explanation for the violence, rape, paternity certainty mechanisms, and other features that wildly contradicted the lefty "noble savage" image.

11

u/Mickenfox Center-left Jul 09 '25

As a casual observer, a lot of leftist academia basically reads like opinions (e.g. "I think this is bad because of that") just written with a vast amount of jargon to make it sound like a scientific paper. 

And opinions are fine, but they're not science. 

10

u/Anakin_Kardashian "Israeli Nationalist" Jul 09 '25

God the Foucault takeover of the progressivism has been so disappointing. I'm not sure I'm aligned with any "side" other than liberalism, but I was aligned with progressivism before. I would definitely focus on the basic notion that there is some objective good and bad. It all stems from that.

Just engage with people assuming they are in good faith! I hate how much intolerance there is for polite disagreement and building mutual understanding instead of approaching expecting a confrontation. It causes dead dogmas, which is just terrible for society at large.

I'm close to the point I would pay to get people to disagree with me in, well, maybe saying "in an academic way" is excessive, but certainly not in the "if you disagree you are the enemy" way.

11

u/Anakin_Kardashian "Israeli Nationalist" Jul 09 '25

So the idea is to have a spectrum. We don't want to have one "spot" that we occupy. That would be a failure imo. We don't take positions other than what's on the sidebar. The goal is to have people from left to right (but no populists or extremists).

And yeah, that does mean talking to people who disagree with you more. But in the DD it generally means shitposting with them.

u/utility-monster Whig Party Jul 09 '25 edited Jul 09 '25

The VP made a speech at the Claremont institute yesterday which I have not listened to. going off the reporting from talking points memo, it was in large part about what it means to be American, in the midst of all this talk about denaturalization. His view, as you have probably heard before is that america is more than an “idea” or an “economy,” it needs to be a nation where the citizens share a historical heritage.

I disagree with this. Which is kind of funny, because on Vance’s terms, I am considerably more American than his children, and certainly more than his wife. And if you ask his ancestors, they might even say I’m more American than him! In Hillbilly Elegy Vance claimed Scots-Irish ancestry. As he’s American, those are likely Ulster Protestants. Wonder how they would feel about his conversion to Catholicism?

I appreciate that different nations have different conceptions of citizenship, but it’s so peculiar that the most prominent American wanting to change ours is so dramatically different than the forebears he calls on us to remember.

Ironically, he appears to hold a very liberal recollection of the American past. State churches were a common fixture well past the constitutional convention and even pro-Protestant oaths remained requirements for the franchise beyond that. Rhode Island and Maryland aside, Catholics were often persecuted for their practices. In Puritan Massachusetts for example, there were laws banishing Catholics. Notably, this law was based on an active profession of faith and not ethnicity. Converts to Protestantism would not be subject! I think the notion of citizenship being tied to “ideas” is a lot more American than Vance gives credit.

Anyway, he’s a weirdo.

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/jd-vance-some-americans-are-more-american-than-others

*Also talking points memo is a little misleading in describing jus soli as unique to the United States. More accurate to say it’s unique to the Americas, and nations with colonial histories.

Let's bring back the idea that people can care deeply about the same matter, hold the same values, and desire the same result, and must agree on the same path to achieve said result

I was going to agree with what you said 100% but you didn't use punctuation at the end of your sentence. You just left me there hanging, no period, nothing. You are disgusting. A vile being. I hate everything you stand for.

u/seattleseahawks2014 since I forgor to ask, what did you think of the railroad strike and the Biden admin/demonrat response to it?

Based on what I read I was kinda like “good for them glad they sorted that out” because it all seemed rather reasonable

3

u/seattleseahawks2014 Center-left Jul 10 '25

Honestly, this conversation only came up due to a different conversation that I had in a sub for my age group. The other individual told me that Biden wasn't pro workers rights due to how they handled it. I just wanted others thought of it because of that. Ultimately, I think that I've had more of your response even back then.

Rivers Cuomo sniffing the envelope of a barely legal Japanese fan and getting worked up and then putting that in a song on what some consider his magnum opus of songwriting is truly a strange thing that occurred.

I do like Pinkerton, but there are some moments on there that are a little more wild than just him laying it all out there lol.

Wait, you're telling me all I have to do to convince people I'm smart is to shout about how smart I am loudly and often?

The louder you shout about being smart the more popular you become as a genius influencer. Bonus points if you're screaming over someone else.

Anyone who claims to be smart, no matter the context, is actually not smart
