The far left progressives are actually lily white. Nearly seven-in-ten Leftward Progressives (67%) are white adults, making this group less racially and ethnically diverse than the other Democratic-oriented groups.
Yet, these chiefly white folks hold extremist views not JUST on race (for example, 72% of them think the legacy of slavery holds back blacks “a great deal” versus just 37% of the “Order and Opportunity Left” group that has about 3x more concentration of blacks!), but on a plethora of matters. Indeed, this lot holds more extreme views overall than those held by more racially-diverse Dem groups.
As Pew calls them, “Leftward Progressives” are:
Overwhelmingly Democratic in their orientation, but not very satisfied with the Democratic Party. Just two-in-ten say there are often political candidates who share their views, and they feel less warmly toward the party than Loyal Liberals.
Younger and online. About eight-in-ten (79%) are under age 50, making them by far the youngest typology group. And 61% say they’re online almost constantly.
Largely religiously unaffiliated, with 63% saying they are atheist, agnostic or “nothing in particular” and very few (6%) saying they attend religious services weekly or more often.
Majority White (67%). Another 13% are Hispanic, 7% are Black and 6% are Asian.
Highest share LGBTQ group in the typology: 36% of Leftward Progressives identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender or queer. By comparison, no more than 15% of adults in any other group identify as LGBTQ.
These whites live in enclaves in cities, think religion is sophistry, and have a strong bias to trust “experts.” Their policies and language all reek of a Superiority Complex.
The decline of western civ comes chiefly from the likes university professors, Paul Ryan, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Willard, Gavin Newsome, and similar losers who don’t look like Those People Over There.
Splinters and beams.
