Yes, I've gone over the political utility of that division many times here. First, racism is established as an idea doppelganger for "evil", then frame every political issue with the outline of which side is racist and which side isn't. Voila, advantage left on every political issue. And it really is every political issue with them. Speaking of Matthew Yglesias from that other thread, he is a prime perpetrator of this sort of framing and messaging, and he does it with these factors explicitly in mind.
