Nope. I'm glad to say that this isn't my moment in history and I have no problem with you claiming it as yours . It's pretty clear to me, the thugs/criminals/looters won the recent battle that took place in the blue cities and the liberal Democrats seem to be eager to please and seem eager to make concessions. My time in history has yet to come.
The lack of justice and equality is relevant. The racist patten of the police is relevant. Your own racist and violent attitudes that this pattern should continue is relevant.
Every two or four generations there is rejection of the racism, and movement towards justice. Many conservatives, such as yourself, would rather see the racism, violence, injustice in inequality continue. This isn’t your moment in history. Go fade into the looser's place in the history books, the holder of an antiquated set of values which are held as abhorrent.
It is natural for political alliances to form. Indeed, the movement against racism must be seen as an ally among the progressives who oppose Reaganomics, especially since Reaganomics is the prime cause of continued systemic racism and the inability of society to address poverty and inequality and indeed every other problem. Every progressive candidate must address every progressive movement, and there are several large ones as I have indicated. None can win alone. So yes, Democrats rely on every member and every group of the blue alliance. Injustice fuels discontent, which fuels liberal movements for change and helps the politicians that represent them get elected.
If victories are achieved, and racism, brutality, lack of social and economic mobility, pollution and climate change, lousy health care, attacks on democracy and effective government programs and agencies, and gun violence, all substantially decrease, then people will move on, consensus and consolidation will ensue, movements will subside, and conventional lifestyles and attitudes can revive in a first turning. The Classic Xers of the world look forward to this first turning, when (we hope) America will be great again, but meanwhile they oppose the actions necessary for a successful first turning to develop. So ironically, all the Classic Xers and the other members of the Red Team MUST be defeated in this 4T in order for their 1T hopes to be achieved!
