They're not oblivious. Pelosi, Schumer, Booker, et. al. know perfectly why they lost but to admit the truth would mean shining a spotlight on their donor base. You think they want to bring the unwashed masses of the Millenials into their party? How would they justify taking all that AIPAC, PhRMA, MIC, etc. money? Pelosi herself said they don't need change. They're doing very nicely as the well-paid cock-blockers of the Left that people actually want.

I had a similar situation. I realised that doctors are just statisticians trained to pick the most likely cause regardless of hunches or suspicions. And so they also ignore you because what you say is anecdotal and not backed by statistical trial. If they waiver from that, they open themselves up to malpractice suits for ignoriing the statistically most likely cause. Only when they are sure the judgement is an error will they then move to the next most statistically likely cause, and so on.

Pfizer scrambling for the moral high ground. Providing drugs to kill people damages their image and there's almost no profit in it so their PR flacks craft a nobly worded sentiment for their blurb. I worked for them through PhRMA and believe me, I saw no indication of concern from them for anything without a fcking $ sign in front of it. Evil people.
