Is the anti-white male agenda of the left really going to win for them?

The strategy of the modern left is simple: They no longer care about economic marxism as their primary vehicle of winning elections and instead have gone for racial, gender and other group entitlements to generate a "majority" via "oppressing" minorities.   The question is: Have they pondered the consequences of this strategy?  When a party is about simple ethnic scapegoating, then what's the point of winning power to create a modern marxist utopia?  I call it the "Creating Detroit to finish making the world into Sweden" model.

It's no significant secret.  They regularly blog and even write in op-ed sections in the back of style sections that they plan to win elections via demographics.  Once the white males have been marginalized, they giggle, then the Republican will dissolve away, right? 

Er, no.  Or perhaps.  This is assuming that the Republican party will go down with a fight and considering the weak, "reactionary" response the right has put up so far with mostly moderates except for Reagan (and even he wasn't that extreme), they may have a point.  But if the right wants to survive, it will still have a lot left in reserve.

For starters, in the states most elections see a fractional turnout.  Voter apathy is high since the left is not delivering utopia (see above) and the right is selling out it's primary electorate.  As time goes by, however, and the right realizes that they NEED their primary electorate (white males but more on that later), they will pander, or at least, address the concerns of their base.  They'll call for ending racist preferences for non-white, non-males and other democrat special interest groups and many non-white, non-males, believe it or not, are just as against racial and gender preferences as whites were against Jim Crow.  And from there, it gets interesting. 

As more white males show up and Democrat's primary method of buying votes is delegitimized, women will slowly begin defecting to the right.  This is because abortion rights and welfare are not as valuable to most women as marrying traditional breadwinning men and the Republican party is where they're at.  Already, the left is losing the gender gap and as women become less useful to pander to, they need to focus on their core.  In the meantime, as the greek style socialist economy worsens and the left becomes simply about racial entitlements rather than economic marxism, their big tent may seen them turn upon each other.  Will they ever run a black president again?  And which non-white will be next?  Do they hope to win a general election with their now largely racial entitlements party?

Before you may scoff at the notion of the left losing their female voting gap, keep in mind that this was usually matched by a male gender voting gap.  So overall, the biggest margins for the left, if they were a business, would have been racial entitlements followed up by government workers and welfare recipients.  But even welfare recipients are only marginally useful since many of them either don't know how to vote or are felons and unable to do so.  In any case, the right and left both pandering to women has been largely a waste of time.  So far.  The left got some more women's votes and the right got some more men and that was that.  There are slightly more women than men in the country, but this is again as salesmen would say "We'll make if up on volume."  The women's vote has been plumbed by both parties yet the men's rights vote has been barely touched.  Imagine if the right made divorce courts, or civil rights for men in the workplace, an election issue.  Men would show up in droves for the right.  And the left would be able to do little about it since they have no credibility at this point.  The right would get fantastic margins AND big numbers.

So this all ain't over yet, folks!
