The modern left as a political force in America dies inside 30 years. Something else will have to grow.
Why? Because in 20 years, the Academy falls as the arbiter of truth. The internet disintermediates. The academy is the church, which restrains the worst corporate excesses of the corporate Baronlets, but a person living in the real world cannot afford it's unrealistic prejudices.

The WSJ has polled people on their political views repeatedly over the years.
In the past 20 years, the results have been impressively static.
40% self-describe as Conservative
40% as Moderate
20% as Liberal
plus or minus a percentage point this has been perfectly static.
