I think he/she is making the point that our society is not comprehensively discussing topics with all angles covered. The progressive wing of the party in power—Bernie, AOC, the 'squad', the whole crew that normally tweets 10 times per day and has opinions on everything—goes absolutely mute when confronted by some hard, inconvenient reality outside the US liberal bubble like Cuba or Afghanistan. As the situation in Afghanistan worsened, the charismatic new face of progressive politics was…enthusing about public libraries. Yay! AOC’s tweet: Shout out to libraries and library workers. We love and appreciate you that’s all These same liberals would have been tweeting about ‘leave Afghanistan immediately, we need to spend that money on school lunches’ a year ago, or tweet something about inspiring Afghan women going to school. They would speak up when speaking up was inconsequential. Well, ok, how about now? We left, and now there is the Taliban. It’s the same with defunding the police. Even a small pullback of policing increased crime in many US states. Let’s give homeless people tents. Well, ok, now there are entire encampments of homelessness in LA. Let’s let transgender compete in their gender-of-choice sport. Great, now we have men literally beating women unfairly. Back to the War on Terror, we all know the answer to this problem was time sensitive, we needed to leave Iraq/Afghanistan as soon as we killed Bin Laden. But now that we stayed 20 years in one of these countries, we have an actual responsibility. You know, like not leaving the child you just gave birth to. Are we prepared to discuss it like that? That’s way too mature of course.
