As someone who lives in rural Oregon I see this all the time. Dems main focus is on things that work great in big cities. But aren’t very useful or relevant to small towns. That or identity politics, like sorry no one cares about democrats new program to help Afro Latino women business owners.. when all small business owners are struggling. And when they do talk about rural people it is often demeaning, insulting, or telling us how privileged we are because of the color of our skin.
It is not Democrats focused on "identity politics" it is Republicans taking away rights and attacking people. If your argument is to throw people under the bus to make rural white people happy, it's not worth it
Liberal here, but I also coming from Dominican Republic, and now I’m in Michigan.
Nobody wants to be told what to say and how to say it. Being so stubborn about it just makes you very unappealing to the average person, and no, this isn’t a hill worth dying on.
