Sorry but we really need to stop giving a crap about liberals trying to shame us. The reason Trump won is that liberals handed him the victory. They created an oppressive regime of wokeism and cancel culture, attacking everyone who didn't fully support their sanctimonious positions. But in the end they outlived their welcome with middle class black people, latinos, men, career minded women, young people with ambition, union workers and small business owners. Anyone still trying to shame you? I would tell them to fuck off. The relevance has moved away from woke people. Democrats will have to reinvent themselves if they wish to be relevant in 2028.

None of this means we have moved into Trump camp. Not at all. Life is more bearable as an independent than as a frustrated Democrat watching my own party self destruct. I no longer care.
