Josh Stein is not really the good old boy Eastern NC Dem you seem to be referencing.

Jim Hunt was from Greensboro.
He was a State Senator from Raleigh.
Yes, he lived in Raleigh because he worked in state government. But he’s from DC and lived all over before working in NC. So not an Eastern NC Dem like Easley or Cooper.
I think all of us Democrats and leftists are learning a very hard lesson right now about how singularly responsible the Supreme Court was for social progress in the last few decades, and what the true face of America is going to look like for the next few decades now that Republicans have taken back control of the courts. The world is going to see our cultural progressivism for the facade it is, and finally our domestic culture will be exposed as rotten, just like our foreign policy and our economic equality.
Republicans have had control of the Supreme Court since 1970. It just now in the hands of radicals further to the right.
Not all. Maybe younger people who took Brown v. Board and Roe v. Wade for granted. Maybe think about that when you criticize older Black people and women for voting blue no matter who. They knew what was at stake.
Fair, but *radical* as compared to what? The courts current idealogical makeup seems perfectly in line with modern conservatism.
The Democratic Party is fucking terrible and I’ll damn well criticize *anyone* who supports it religiously without holding it accountable. Very much of the fucked up shit about our society is on the heads of people who keep mainstream corporate Democrats in power every election, and that includes a hell of a lot of black voters, along with the white suburban shitheads they are so afraid of swinging to the Republican Party. This whole damn country is to blame.
Voting for Democrats isn’t the same as voting uncritically.
One thing I'll say for the GOP, they know their audience and know how to sell them a line like nobody's business.
I like how MDMH essential says it’s his way and only his way all bow down to his way of thinking. Black voters, suburban voters, all voters he speaks for you and he knows what’s best!
Dumb and passionate!
That’s Republican.
