No, I'd say it's the 'both sides' nonsense people say, acting as if both sides are equally responsible for the problems. Yes, Democrats are part of the problem. But they're the missing doorknobs to the Republicans sinkhole swallowing the entire house.

I mean, at the end of the day it's not policy as much as people want to believe that passing your proposed policies = winning elections.

It's all identity politics, then, now, forever. Poor black urban voters and poor white rural voters have the exact same needs, tend to lean religious, and yet vote radically different ways, even when one side promises to cut their welfare benefits time and time again. They literally interviewed VA voters who said CRT was their biggest reason for voting, and when asked what CRT, did not know what it was.
