No, but a person who uses their failures to justify open hostility to minorities deserves no sympathy, as far as I'm concerned, from anyone. The left becomes complicit in this when they write these attitudes off as "economic anxiety." If anything, they are completely fine with suffering as long as the people they hate suffer more.
We did not get people like Paul Ryan, Donald Trump, and Greg Gianforte in our government by accident, remember. People had to vote those guys in.
But I think the dynamic is a little more complex than that - the hostility towards minorities comes out of things like feelings of insecurity, of losing out in the modern world; basically it is an inevitable consequence of economic liberalism (using the European definition of liberalism). When you see your own life going backwards, it is not exactly surprising to see people blaming other people for it; after all, everyone has a tendancy to blame other people when things have gone wrong.
The fundamental reason the left exists is to stand up for the least powerful, which includes the WWC, and if it lets down these people then it is not doing its job at the end of the day.
On the back of that, I really think that shunning the white working class because we dislike their culture, or the way they have reacted to a negative set of circumstances, is just falling into the same "divide and rule" trap that the right use, and always have used, to keep themselves in power.
Exactly. They'll take in the gay community, the black community, single moms and women, muslims and all of their problems....but if white voters have problems they'll call them "deplorable".
