If there was a surefire way to win the hearts and minds of the American people in the raging culture war, the left thought they had found it. Call everyone racist and bigoted, tell parents they shouldn’t have a say in what their children are taught, and allow biological males to dominate women’s sports. Oh, also, push queer content into children’s entertainment, promote hormone therapy and surgical gender transition for kids, and go soft on pedophiles.
Ladies and gents, that sounds like a winning strategy to me if I’ve ever heard one! Which is probably why MSNBC’s Chris Hayes and his guest Mark Stern are so baffled to see the conservative right winning the culture war. They just can’t seem to understand how it’s happening.
