As children of post‑1965 immigrants enter leadership and voter ranks, the left’s moral center of gravity is shifting from U.S. slavery legacies to a global anti‑colonial narrative with Palestine as the emblem. This helps explain why 'Free Palestine' has displaced BLM as the dominant progressive cause in streets, campuses, and primaries.
— It highlights a coalition realignment that will reshape messaging, policy priorities, and intraleft conflicts over race, immigration, and foreign policy.

Koppel’s diagnosis that rising antisemitism on the left (and right) could push secularized Jews back toward stronger communal identification links to the existing idea that changes in immigrant and diasporic political priorities are reorienting progressive politics around Palestine; both identify a cross‑generational political realignment driven by identity salience rather than narrow policy arguments.

The article argues that decolonial language has become a universal interpretive frame that reorients progressive commitments; that maps onto the existing idea that the left’s moral center has shifted toward anti‑colonial foreign causes (Palestine), changing coalition priorities and domestic politics.

The article links a shift in left‑wing international sympathies (mentioning Palestine as a cause celebre) to how the Left looks abroad for moral exemplars — an explicit parallel to the existing idea that foreign issues can reorient progressive coalitions.

Both items argue immigration is a core realigning force in politics that reconfigures coalitions and priorities; Goodwin’s article uses new survey evidence and polling to show immigration (like the other idea’s claim about shifting progressive priorities) is changing who parties represent and which issues dominate national debate.

Podhoretz’s piece stresses that attitudes on Israel have become a central moral axis for parts of the Left—echoing the existing idea that progressive moral priorities have shifted toward Palestine and anti‑colonial frames, with consequences for coalition politics and messaging.

Both pieces treat immigration as a driver of coalition and identity shifts; Rufo’s emphasis on who 'we' are and the cultural consequences of post‑1965 flows connects to the existing idea that immigrant‑driven demographic change reshapes left‑of‑center priorities and political narratives.

Yglesias explicitly connects campus/left activism (e.g., National Students for Justice in Palestine) and anti‑Zionist delegitimization to a broader progressive orientation that affects immigration messaging and coalition formation — the same dynamic the existing idea calls out.

The piece documents rising Palestinian asylum flows in Belgium and public sympathy for Gaza while arguing that those arrivals are already producing disruptive protest dynamics; this maps directly onto the existing idea that post‑1965 immigrant cohorts are reshaping progressive politics around Palestine and creating new integration and political challenges.

Both items track how identity politics and migration reshape party coalitions: the article documents how Denmark’s politics converged on restrictive immigration policy (a cross‑cutting identity/policy shift), which complements the existing idea about immigration driving progressive realignments elsewhere; together they show migration can reorder party coalitions in multiple, sometimes surprising directions.

The article cites a 2013 ACS finding (¼ of children with an immigrant parent), the chant 'From Palestine to Mexico, all the walls have got to go,' and Mamdani’s mayoral primary support skew (lower among Black voters) as evidence.
