Of course there are actual tunnel visioned cognitional impaired that one may find to fit the description. The tiny few that give credence to the myth. There are probably a few gay, black, immigrants that support Trump.
But the idea that the left, even the more extreme left, is against women, African Americans, and ESPECIALLY African American women, is ludicrous if you even study that possibility for a second. It was the left that historically fought for women's rights, the left that fights for civil rights, including during MLK days. Its the left that fights for unions, for environmental protections, for social security....etc...etc....etc....If you don't fight for all types of social justice, then you are not left in any way.
I don't know how dumb one has to be to actually believe that there is some large influential significant organized group of left-leaning folks, that only allow white males into their club, that have some kind of cultish overwhelming crush on a cranky disheveled old man who barks more than he speaks. And that everyone, not just Republicans, everyone else is beyond hope and to be ridiculed on Twitter.
