Ugh, I read this so you don't have to. You're welcome. 😓
The first half seemed to be about how the focus on the "Culture War" is now replaced by hatred for Israel, since people can only handle one thing at a time.
I feel dumber for reading that part of the article, but the second half has the real meat of the article.
As for the racial reckoning of the last decade, it missed Joe Biden. He couldn’t stop talking in cringe-inducing racial clichés about the black United States president in whose administration he served. He may employ and empower some radical ideas through his policies and his administration, and for that, Republicans will try to hold him to account. But it will be in vain.
It is very difficult to associate Biden with that radicalism when it is so evident that the last racial-attitudes software update was uploaded to his brain in a 1970s Knights of Columbus cookout. Biden still talks in the racial and ethnic clichés of an America where his voters had little portraits of JFK and John XXIII hanging above their kitchen tables. The Irish are known for whiskey and hating the English. And Italians for pasta and organized crime. And it’s great in Joe Biden’s America when so many black people are “clean” and “articulate,” and you put on “a slight Indian accent” to go into 7-Eleven or Dunkin’ Donuts.
Biden is a man out of his time. That may hurt him among the most progressive voters. But it’s going to reassure the vast majority of Americans. He may be losing his mind, but his character and prejudices are still recognizably loyal to this nation, its institutions, and its traditional allies.
So as "woke" as Sleepy Joe goes, he's still racist uncle enough to not alienate the 80% off people that aren't "radical leftists" and the 20% that are won't be swayed to not vote for Joe because the sensible Republicans can't build a strong argument around his weak, fake "wokeness."
Or something like that. I could only force my brain to absorb so much of that.
