If America was great before 1973, it certainly was only great for white men. Ask a black person just how great America was before 1973. Or a woman. Mexicans. Chinese. Native Americans. MAGA is a racist slogan that only appeals to racist whites and idiots who don't know American history.

Native Americans. MAGA is a racist slogan that only appeals to racist whites and idiots who don't know American history. And white men are the ones who vote. While there has been an increase in participation among all other demographics, educated white males are still the ones who drive US politics. Percentage and numeric participation would have to increase from all other demographics to overturn that.

If the trends hollowing out the middle class continue social justice won't matter. If the plane is going down does it matter if you have an aisle or a window seat?
