No, the left just flounders in identity politics, self-loathing (with just the right amount of race baiting stirred in), while excoriating the rest of the world for not doing the same. I choose not to participate in that mess.
On the other had, if we did the opposite of what the left likes to do, and focus on those things that make us more alike than different, I suspect we'd find less division far more cooperation and success.
But since Trump said it, it must be racist.
