Commentary Why the Left Can’t Let Go of Racism

America’s moral fall in the ’60s made innocence of the past an obsession. Thus liberalism invited people to internalize innocence, to become synonymous with it—even to fight for it as they would for an ideology. But to be innocent there must be an evil from which to be free. The liberal identity must have racism, lest it lose innocence and the power it conveys.

The great problem for conservatives is that they lack the moral glibness to compete with liberalism’s “innocence.”

It's probably a good of a short answer as possible. But the Democrats, who embody the 'Left' , has a history filled with hate, intolerance and criminal behavior.

If you still have to ask, no answer from anyone will suffice.
