Do you feel that there is more anti-White sentiment among liberals/Democrats than there was 5 or 10 years ago?
I feel that many conservatives or Trump fans criticize liberals/democrats for identity politics but yet can't seem to stop themselves from making it all about identity politics.
Yes it's SUPER TRENDY to hate on white people, white culture, white history, white food, etc. And it's really sad that many young people are taught by those who push these ideas and haven't had enough experience with life to realize what utter poppycock it all is.
I don't think so. I think we are more aware of everything especially negative because of more news and talk channels, radio, social media and websites with information. There is more access to information.
What's wrong with women, people of color, and younger folk being elected officials?
There is nothing wrong nor right with it. It should be meaningless.
MLK once said (paraphrased) "He did not want his kids judged by the color of their skin, but rather by the content of their character". My favorite paraphrased quote from a fine American.
The DNC obsession with "firsts" is racist at times, and sexist at times (2016). Equality is about being totally indifferent to demographic characteristics. To NOT even care. To judge candidates based on objective qualifications and positions, and nothing more. To vote for someone solely due to demographic characteristics is the ultimate slap in the face act of condescension.

True . And we do see it all the time with Dems . The latest cool identity is to be Muslim it seems.
Keep hearing about the “first Muslim X” and also being “transgendered “
That is the main thing the focus on , I don’t care what race gender religion someone is . Interestingly these Muslim candidates all seem to have a socialism agenda .
I'm not going to apologize for being white or being part of the Western cultural tradition which created this country just as I will not apologize for being gay or having an Asian husband, who btw is becoming a US citizen this month after our 5 year process.
My spouse has adopted to this country, understanding that that equals success and that this country is great. He and we retain his culture at home via food and holidays, but he has assimilated and adopted American norms.
People are sick to death of mainstream American culture being denigrated over and over. No, America is not evil, in fact it's the greatest gift the world has ever seen.
Whoaaaaaaaaa. So you like America. Ok. Geees. I get it.

I get the feeling you wouldn’t know what “trendy” was anytime this side of the 21st century.
