YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhile Democrats and Republicans have been deeply divided for a century and the right has largely coalesced around Trumpism, the newest political rift has formed within the political left. The latest, and perhaps most politically consequential battle has formed around the war in the Middle East, but several years of internal culture wars sparked the fire. Is the “woke left” dismantling democratic values such as free speech and pluralism, or are centrists neglecting the most marginalized Americans by upholding elitist institutions? Is the left now illiberal?
