Exactly.
Expanding the thought, why do you think that Biden selected
VicePresident elect Harris as his running mate?Because of her stellar performance in the primaries (she dropped out before the first primary)?
Because of her stellar performance as a prosecutor (who admitted to smoking weed while prosecuting people for smoking (or at least buying) weed)?
Or could it be something else.
We'll never know.

Why do these white people hate white people?
I guess this is coming from the administration that is a descendent of an administration of Americans that was never proud of America.
They really ought to quit using skin color as an excuse for anything.

I'm rewatching the Expanse - and love the character Amos who is alleged to have a weak moral compass. He finds someone who has a good compass, and follows their lead. Biden needs to find someone like that - and NEVER trust his own instincts.

Yeah, it was to be expected that Biden will push identity politics.
It’s incredibly dangerous and silly, and it makes me angry, but it’s still preferable over four more years of Trump. IMHO only, of course.

And that's where we disagree...The noise to signal ratio with Trump is high, but a lot of the policies are good. Witness the ending of Critical Race Theory in Federal employee training, etc.

Identity politics was one of the biggest reasons we got Trump. More identity based policies are just going to deepen the rift.

Well, to give it a positive spin, we only disagree on the weight we assign to different evils

This is what most political disagreements boil down to. Unfortunately "never Trump" is binary rather than graduated, which has introduced a great difficulty in discussion.

Never Hillary gave us Trump.
Never Trump gave us Biden.
Trump sped up the swing rate of the pendulum is all.
