I had a long discussion with a FB friend who challenged me on my framing, asking why it was so inflammatory, why I no longer judiciously or objectively analyzed the underlying social issues involved. My conclusion to him:
And
I get your examination of the underlying issues. We know that such
examination is beyond the minds of most Americans who vote.To the
contrary they find such examination part of the 'elite' problem. So
framing the way I do might seem superficial and/or
inflammatory and/or whatever, but this is the kind of stuff that
influences the average voter, whom we need to win elections so that
progressives can implement more democratic policies. This is war and
"certain rules don't apply" in this crisis.
