SOME democrats get it... the "woke" words they need to cut from their speech.

SOME democrats are starting to get it. 

Establishment democrat think-tank, Third Way (and no, I've never heard of it, either, but they're apparently major establishment players for the left) has come up with a set of blacklisted terms the left should STOP using. 

As for me, I believe it's far too little... and far too late:

“We are doing our best to get Democrats to talk like normal people and stop talking like they’re leading a seminar at Antioch,” says Matt Bennett, Third Way’s executive vice president of public affairs. 

Far, far too late and far too much ingrained into the leftist psyche. Getting leftists to speak and write like non-leftist political hacks has as much chance of success as getting them to stop hoping the president is assassinated. In short, none at all.

“We think language is one of the central problems we face with normie voters, signaling that we are out of touch with how they live, think and talk." 

Perhaps he should add "normie voters" to the list?

"To please the few, we've alienated the many."

No kidding?

“The intent of this language is to include, broaden, empathize, accept, and embrace,” the memo states. “The effect of this language is to sound like the extreme, divisive, elitist, and obfuscatory, enforcers of wokeness. To please the few, we have alienated the many − especially on culture issues, where our language sounds superior, haughty and arrogant.” 

Duh. Seriously? Leftist arrogance and attempted moral superiority REEKS. Demands, for example, that we play along with the trans mental illness comes to mind. (yes, I refuse) 

ANYhoo, here's PART of the list. I'm trying to get all of it, but this is a start. 

Among the blacklisted terms: privilege … violence (as in “environmental violence”) … dialoguing … triggering … othering … microaggression … holding space … body shaming … subverting norms … systems of oppression … cultural appropriation … Overton window … existential threat to [the climate, democracy, economy] … radical transparency … stakeholders … the unhoused … food insecurity … housing insecurity … person who immigrated … birthing person … cisgender … deadnaming … heteronormative … patriarchy … LGBTQIA+ … BIPOC … allyship … incarcerated people … involuntary confinement.

Yes, it's a beginning. Their problem? 

They waited far too long and now the neocommunist wing of the fringe-left has much more sway and influence to actually get them to listen. 

Many industrialists in Germany supported Hitler's rise to power, convinced he was a hick they could control. By the time they figured out they'd been delusional, it was far too late for them to do anything about it. 

This is something of a replay of that scenario. 

Getting the progressives now mostly running the party to appeal to "normie voters" at this point has as much chance as forcing MLB to change the term "foul ball" into something like "miss-hit ball".

Good luck with that. 

Meanwhile, I look forward to their efforts to try and change course on the moronic policies these same people support. 

But I'm not holding my breath.
