> It was documented that police and city councils were afraid to go after perpetrators for fear of being seen as racist.
So you really think that "the left" would rather take that then investigate such a hot issue? Seriously?
Do you have a source on that documentation?
> This isn't about some leftist trying and failing to popularize, it's about nobody even trying to, over the course of 4 years.
So if "nobody" even tried, why is the left at fault? Wouldn't be "everybody" at fault? Maybe it's no racism conspiracy but something completely different? Whatever it is, it's completely different then what goes on in #metoo or #metwo where many people try. Many of them being affected themselves and so on.
> This is not suprising, the right has practically no cultural power.
Well, they managed #Brexit pretty well. That was 2 years ago.
> a) The left typically deals with this.
So let's wrap this up: not even the right cares about it even though it falls perfectly in their spectrum (as being the opposite of the left AND something with child abuse which is what they love to scream for death penalty), but the it's nonetheless the lefts fault...
> b) It would have been a massive deal no one forgot about if
Yeah, maybe. Maybe not.
> c) If the left doesn't come up with an answer to these issues, then only the far-right does, which dramatically increases their grassroots power, since they're actually responding to reality.
Where I come from, the justice system deals with such things. Not politics or the media or twitter. While you think it's the opposite and not only this, the left took the role of the justice system which has to be abolished if it doesn't do what you want.
I don't know man. It all sounds like the usual right wing madness argumentation which usually does not come from anywhere near reality ;)
