Not so much. Ukraine stands as an example of the current style of war-mongering. Russia is the great enemy so it must be okay. And if we get them into NATO just imagine the arms we can sell. Look closely the next time you see a "military affairs" expert appearing as an analyst on the mainstream media news programs. Virtually every one is on the board of a "defense" contractor calling for more missiles, more shells, more bombs. Anti-war? Not so much.
Women's rights? Not so much. After all the years and struggles of Title IX we're gonna chuck all that so men can put on a woman's speedo and eliminate the chance of female athletes being on a level playing field ever again. Yeah women's rights? Not so much.
Anti-racist? After how many years of civil rights battles and hard won gains in equality for black people we are now going to dumb it all down to make up the numbers. Instead of addressing fundamental issues of education we'll just eliminate the testing standards for less than qualified people of color because, you know, diversity. Oh and equality too. Let's have separate (but equal?) dormitories and graduation ceremonies for people of color to preserve their "culture". This is inclusion? How do any of these things do anything positive for people of color? Yeah not so much.
The democratic party has lost their focus. It is a sad parody of what it was in the civil rights era. It is more interested in riches and power than equality of opportunity or peace around the country and the world.
