Lest we forget, elections are really a contest between the billionaires who control both parties. And the billionaires want us to be obsessed with race and gender so we pay zero attention to material issues. This is what DEI is intended to do, at least in part. Wokeism is most definitely not on the wane; women all around me reflexively recite the catechism with even more fervor than before, and have learned literally nothing. I hear nary a reflection about why people of color defected from their historical party allegiance. It really underscores the arrogance and intellectual dishonesty of the laptop class.
