@thomaschattwill I don’t know what he is saying, when the US is still massively segregated to this day 🤔

@makledes He’s saying these linguistic constructions are alienating and counterproductive, but not that there’s no segregation or racism.

@thomaschattwill Carville is a smart man. He also knows the core problem: the party cannot win without the woke, but it can't hold the liberal centre with this immune attack on the host.

@thomaschattwill I'm curious if they would consider a neighborhood that's 60% white and 40% minority a "community of color" or not.

@thomaschattwill I’m inclined to agree. We must see and address things, however the culture developed around seeing things doesn’t also account for a path for redemption or personal growth. You’re either perfect your entire life or shit. That’s not a world anyone can live in and thrive.

@thomaschattwill Carville gets it on one level and completely misses it on another. I don't want Republicans 2.0, I want a return to liberalism.

@thomaschattwill @benshapiro IMO, Vox has some ground to cover to repair their 2020 covid obsession.

@thomaschattwill This is a case of "two things can be true." We need to address racism, race discrimination, and acknowledge systemic issues. We need MORE of that. /c

@thomaschattwill @benshapiro Ask any white person from places like Milwaukee, they don’t refer to certain areas as “communities”.
