Dear the Left,

Let’s spend more time and energy fixing the gaps on this side of the political spectrum. The Right, which is chock full of unapologetic bigots, has gotten enough play for several lifetimes. There’s plenty of work to do in our own house.
We need more dialogue and solution-building between the disparate parts of our side. Stop running away from being more progressive to appeal to the most morally depraved in our society and stop building up leaders who don’t see the full potential of a more United Left.
That time and energy you spend absolving the Right of their sins against humanity could be spent learning from folks who are further Left than you are. The best solutions are on this side. Act accordingly.
Now that more people than ever have seen first hand how many cracks are in so many of our established institutions and systems after four years of Trump, you have the unique opportunity to build and create lasting change. Don’t blow it.
