That's all very true, though I do think bernies approach of modeling socially progressive ideology through action and actually standing up for folks, while advocating policy that would help change systems of oppression, would have been infinitlely more effective at reaching people than the preachy hollow "CEO girlboss" identity politics of neo-libralism has pivoted towards
Which I think has mostly just done a lot of harm without accomplishing much good, and massively fed the current exclusionary social movement (that is currently seeking to frame minorities as the root of all societal woes and stamp us out of existence)
