If you dismiss it as having absolutely no impact, you’re losing any shred of nuance. I’ve never said that sexism is the main reason Kamala lost (because I don’t think it is).
100000% on everything here. The bolded part is what Democrats are apparently refusing to understand.
Democrats to women: "You are a woman so you must only care about abortion!"
Democrats to Black men: "You are a black man so you must only care about systemic racism in this country!"
Democrats to Latinos: "You are hispanic so you must only care about..." Actually, I don't even know what their message was to Latinos.
Democrats to young people: "You are young so you must only care about climate change!"
Due to their incessant reliance on identity politics they simply cannot comprehend how a Latino/woman/young/black person might care about, oh I don't know, the economy, legal immigration, prosperity, security, no foreign wars, the list goes on. That's why you always hear them ask (heard it already this morning) "how could you vote against your own self interests?" Until they realize that their usual base can't fit into neat little boxes I anticipate they will continue to struggle with working class voters across demographic profiles.
Corporate left-wing media has been telling people all morning it's the main reason. Again, Hilary and Kamala were AWFUL candidates. They didn't lose because "sexism!!".
