(PJ Media)—For years now, the Left has come out in full rabid-dog mode on one issue or another, and conservatives have routinely asked, “Is this the hill they want to die on?” And yes, whatever the outrage du jour may be, it is always the hill upon which progressives want to die. This is due in part to the fact that outrage is the lifeblood of the Left, and the members figure if they just keep screaming, emoting, and throwing tantrums, they will win through attrition.
The last election did little to convince many within the inner party (and many in the lower ranks) that the time had come to temper their ambitions on systemic overthrow and fundamental transformation. The mythology of victimhood is powerful, and its stories are still being told around progressive campfires, albeit to fewer ears.
However, not everyone on the Left is as obtuse as its most vocal adherents, and those people understand that continuing the radical trajectory is no way to run a railroad; they realize that if you want to survive, you have to learn to live in reality. For example, as I was writing this piece, the news broke that 128 House Democrats joined the GOP to put the kibosh on Al Green’s effort to impeach Trump over the Iranian airstrikes. Those Democrats may loathe Trump, but they also know that a nuclear Iran is nightmare fuel.
In a similar vein, the National Pulse reports that Evan Low, who is the CEO of the LGBTQ+ Victory Fund, is telling Democrats to back off from the gender agenda and to quit pushing the cultural fights. For example, Low feels it is time to stop giving the transgender sports issue so much oxygen when people are concerned about real-world, real-time issues.
Regarding men masquerading as women in sports, Low commented, “This is not a top 1, top 5, top 10, or top 30 issue.” Low is urging the Dems to focus on kitchen-table issues.
