Nice post..If you don't mind me adding...You can't assign "character" to a "group" (well, you can; if you do some mental gymnastics). Character and merit are judged based on the individual
Something the left knows nothing about these days; hence their abject failure. If and only if they can get back to respecting the individual; they may have a chance. Until then, they are awash in debauchery because "individuals" with bad behavior will hide behind? Groups. They need to hold the individual accountable and they simply don't know how to do that anymore.
“You can’t assign “character” to a “group””
That’s kinda the point. And I think MLK knew that, too.
It’s all about individual responsibility, not “collective redemption.”
Democrats have no working concept of “individual” except,possibly for the Philosopher King they crave, such as JFK and they thought for a while, Clinton, and for now, it is the Kenyan.
