strongly supports my case that the problems you mention were allowed to develop, in large part, because of the ubiquitous RightWing Propaganda Machine that has sold a basic idea: liberal bad, conservative good. So successful is their propaganda that they have even managed to get people to turn against things they like and believe in Simply by by calling them liberal.
Admittedly, I just skimmed it this time, but read it thoroughly in the past and remember it that way. There's another article I read a couple of years ago that I just can't seem to find again, but it did a great job of explaining this and it talked about how donors on the right are more than willing to donate money for non-specific, non-policy-tied messaging, but that on the left donors are far less willing to do so. And it makes the case that this has damaged progressives massively.
Wish I could find that darn article.
Thanks for the discussion.
