The app for independent voices

Regarding this:

"But this stuff is promoted and sanctioned by the Democrats and the corporatist Uniparty Propaganda Cabal (MSM)"

Any assertion that "the Democrats" support the kind of thing that just happened at Hamline University is absurd.

That's similar to stating that all Republicans approve of the crowd that staged an insurrection at the Capital building.

Any such assertions are reductive, and as such they do more to confuse than to clarify the complex reality that we actually live in.

Can you, in fact, name even one prominent democrat leader, politician, or columnist who has expressed support for the admin at Hamline University? Conservatives and Liberals alike (from the NYT, to the WP, the Atlantic, Reason, Slate, Chronicle of Higher Education, PEN, and even the uber left dailykos) have near universally condemned Hamline's actions in this case.

I think it takes an unshakably pre-conceived notion to in any way take actual note of what's going on right now and then somehow come away saying that the sad events at Hamline are supported by Democrats.

Nevertheless, I acknowledge that we do not really have a sufficient political/cultural vocabulary to more accurately describe those administrators at Hamline. Some terms that might apply: ideologues, Leftists, Far Left extremists, or perhaps even identitarians.

But "Democrats" in general? That is simply an absurd assertion.
