    The increased normalization of stereotyping. I try to stop myself, but I don’t think I’m immune either. It just feels like people are just more okay with seeing that someone is a certain nationality or race and assuming things than they were 5 - 10 years ago, regardless of political orientation. Some communities dislike it when you don’t play into the stereotype, even.








  • USA:

    I would be running on a social democratic platform with a focus on urbanism, affordable housing and tough-on-landlords policies, de-escalation with China, stopping state governments from being aggressive toward Mexico, and introducing a bodily autonomy amendment to the Constitution, with rhetoric that attempts to take the notion of American pride back from conservatives and warmongerers.

    I was one of those people stopped being “anti-SJW” when Unite the Right happened, and later I flirted with anarcho-communist ideas (I’m still in my early 20s, this is more common with American youth than you’d think.) The former would turn off my social democratic base, the latter would discourage centrist voters. Also my views on race don’t align perfectly with the American progressive orthodoxy (it has a lot to do with being mixed race, though I don’t think my views are popular with mixed people either.) And I crossdress (might boost me with socdems but halt momentum with undecideds and old people.)
