True. The racism has been a key component in keeping the division going, but more recently, trans and inter-generational nonsense has been thrown in.
The trans aspect has given them a LOT of traction in the past ten years or so, since they lost on the gay marriage thing. It probably led to where we are right now, in fact. People like Megyn Kelly said it was their #1 concern. Imagine that - number one out of all the things to be concerned with. She might just be cosplaying for dollars like all these right wing bullshit artists, but still - I’m sure lots of the right are positively obsessed with the “issue” of trans.
We’ll see how the inter-generational warfare plays out for them. It seems to be going pretty well so far, since I see lots and lots of the so-called “left” falling for this shit, too. The inter-generational stuff might be more about trying to fracture the left than it is about distracting the right, but we’ll see how it plays out.
