It is difficult for liberals to maintain a unified front because different communities face legitimate life-and-death issues.

The reason why I think it's impossible is most of the issues that are being discussed are legitimately life and death for different communities. Agreed. So when trans people are like, hey... Especially trans women of color are getting murdered a ton. A lot of trans youth are committing suicide. It's not negotiable for them to be like, oh yeah, let's get the pay gap down. It's difficult for them to be like, this has to be our number one issue. It's life and death. And then you have the African American community who are like, cops keep killing and beating the shit out of us when we do nothing. Agreed. And it's difficult to switch focus for them off of that. That's what becomes very difficult. There are life and death issues legitimately on the left for all of these communities.
