\nFriendly reminder that in the \u201890s when the Republicans came after President Bill Clinton over workplace sex with his just-out-of-college intern, amidst multiple accusations of pressing himself on employees and low-status women and rumors of using the Arkansas State Police to advance and cover up his sexual pursuits, the understanding from the left was these wrinkled-up prudes \u201cchasing the Clenis\u201d constituted an attempt to \u201crepeal the Sexual Revolution\u201d that the socially liberalizing post-\u201860s electorate properly rejected

You should read it as suggesting that\u2019s the hegemonic ideology of \u201cthe cultural left\u201d as constituted today even as it more explicitly roots itself in the \u201860s revolutions, marking a departure from the previous \u201cSomething for Everyone\u201d narrative and the coalition it serviced!
