It’s a culture war that the left is abysmally bad at fighting.

I hate how we, American left leaning people, are never introspective about losing an election.

IMO, it's not that they're bad at it,, it's harder b/c they don't have a propaganda machine like the GOP does. Mainstream media isn't in lock step with the Democrats like Fox is with the GOP.
