@mitigatedchaos it isn’t dodging anything. I’m looking at actions and deeds regardless of who they come from.
Plus I’m not sure what your overall point is. Nobody is tolerant of everything. We wouldn’t have opposition to tyrrany if that was the case. Having a bit of intolerance doesn’t negate being pro-diversity.
My point was laid out in the original post: it is entirely normal for people not to want their culture replaced, this is not a unique evil of vile Trump voters which crawled up out of a cave somewhere, and people on the left are the same way.
What I’m trying to explain is that when you lose cultural dominance, you don’t just lose cultural dominance over the little things like what music plays in the local bar. You lose them over the big things as well. It isn’t your culture’s decision anymore. And that can hurt.
Liberal/Progressivism itself has a sort of meta-culture which the Robert E. Lee statue violates. But if our hypothetical confedernecks establish themselves as a majority, then the progressives don’t get to make that decision anymore. Laws follow culture, not just alter it.
Some hostile cultural aspects can be neutralized without really trying to, but they aren’t all so vulnerable to liberal social atomization. My concern, in part, is that since you don’t understand just what it is you’re trying to do, you won’t be able to summon the political will to do what is necessary for your plans.
