Replace "equality" with "equity" in the Leftist column's Government Role and Key Values rows and the rest looks pretty accurate. Liberals want equality and leftists want equity.

Let's also remember that "DEI" stands for "Diversity, Equity and Inclusion." Not "Diversity, Equality and Inclusion." It's obviously leftist.

In conversation, leftists will often refer to "equality" when they actually mean "equity" to try and seem reasonable to the common sense normal folks. Occasionally because they don't actually know the difference between the two words.

What do people who preach for equity say when asked how long do those programs last until they’re no longer needed, or how would one know?

Same goes for reparations, how long do you pay until the “debt” is no longer owed?

If current-day America is systemically racist in their opinion I'd assume the leftist belief is that DEI programs would be needed for decades more at a minimum.

Don't you dare throw out whatever number you think might be appropriate. Especially as a white "cis" man. You'd be signaling that that's all the issue is worth to you. Only $5 million per family/household? Might sound kind of racist coming from either of us.

Wasn't it inevitable though? When you have the liberal premise that we're going to "progress", doesn't that lead to every group outside the mainstream demanding equal time? You start out with the big things like civil rights, women's rights, and once you get that you start looking for other grievance groups for their votes. Progression becomes digression. The Democrats have "progressed" into supporting males competing against female athletes, sharing locker rooms, parents mutilating their children, demanding proper pronouns, teaching revised history to attack whites, stocking school libraries with pornographic material. Even having the gall to suggest paedophiles are just "minor attracted people." All of this is the fruit of extremely liberal professors planting the seeds of indoctrination for well past 20 years. Combine that with a service economy without the opportunities of the past and you have young adults seeking change. Young adults who will be and are now in positions of power. I don't think Trump being reelected ended this. Probably a temporary speed bump.
democrats lost mostly because they were only concerned with identity politics which is mostly what you mentioned and had no concern for the economy.

allow me:

dennis kucinich, mike gravel, there was probably more

bernie sanders was bad on empire and supported israel.
Ummm neither of those guys are in leadership positions anymore. Actually the Democrat party doesn’t want them involved at all in their party.
That should tell you all you need to know. They both dislike war. The Democrat party now seems to loves war.
