r/moderatepolitics discuss why the democrats lack "common sense"

Some users discuss that affirmative action is harmful.

Education has been a big issue for Asians. Progressives have been eliminating advanced Math classes in the name of 'Equity' and in various cities this has caused political mobilization of Asians.

That and affirmative action. Data shows it doesn’t hurt white people. It does hurt Asians 🤷🏻

“If it wasn’t because Trump is so clearly an idiot, I’m not sure I’d be voting Democrat”

This is me right here. Could never vote for trump, but after 2024 I don't think I will be able to vote for anyone that can't define a woman ever again.

What the Democrats want to do to Title IX is gross. It would destroy hundreds of years of progress for women.

Some find Maher hypocritical

I appreciate Maher 's ability to cut against the common media narrative, but he is just as bad as most in my view, and is only changing his tune now that the tide has apparently shifted in the other direction.

Look at his videos prior to the election. He knew of the faults of the DNC yet still blindly followed the party line. It's not brave to criticize your own party once you've lost. I would argue that, if he really felt the way he did about the DNC, that he should have been more vocal about it prior to the election.

I'd be completely happy to never hear the phrase "common sense" ever again. It's used by each side of every argument, doesn't mean anything, and evokes fallacious logic.

So you’re liberal, but enjoy trans people being mocked

I think the issue is more that the Democrats' agenda is portrayed by the right as anti-common sense agenda, while their actual agenda is fairly common sense. Unfortunately they suck at communicating and defending their agenda.

Some people discuss that the democrats don't care about immigration.

The election is over, dems no longer have to pretend about caring about our borders.

Haha, it was obvious that they didn't care. Remember when it was "kids in cages" while Trump was in office? But when Biden gets it, it's crickets from them. Tribalists gonna tribalist.
