Being neither a Democrat nor a Republican, I've always simply viewed the Dems as having this "whiny" wing of the party, the top of the wokey-wokeness, who suck up all of the attention and become the de facto face of the party. Meanwhile, there's always been a wing of the Republican Party very much interested in destroying the Constitution, perhaps going as far as modifying our rights, but whose members KNOW they cannot talk about such things and thus have never really gained much attention (because they don't want it). Here, I'm thinking about Project 2025 as an example.
Am I right in having thought of things this way for the last 35 years? I've assumed that the wokeness nonsense was always a thing that could be burst like a bubble, rather easily, as I believe we are seeing now? I never saw the Democrats leading us to communism, let's just put it that way. But on the other side, by the time the bubble can be burst you will be subject to imprisonment or worse for even touching the bubble.
