Littering from a car is possibly an even greater indicator of shittiness than not returning a shopping cart. Almost everywhere you can park has a trash can between you and the door you’re going to, and it takes zero effort to not throw trash out of the car. It’s an active decision to shit things up.

Yes. All the empirics on misinformation indicate that the way to defeat bad ideas is to mock and marginalize them. Constantly declaring "hey the far right isn't so bad" is a terrible strategy both morally and electorally.

Dems should be way more comfortable saying "look at these fucking psychos"
Progressives really hope, and maybe even believe, that there is some magic thing they can hijack to attract conservative voters.

The focus on this mythical quest is the central reason they lose.
I found this piece sad too, but mostly because it is part of a years-long effort by progressives to understand what "really" animates Trump voters.

We already know! It is racism, misogyny and misinformation. I know that sounds condescending or whatever but it's simply what all evidence suggests.
