“If the purges [of potential voters], challenges and ballot rejections were random, it wouldn’t matter. It’s anything but random. For example, an audit by the State of Washington found that a Black voter was 400% more likely than a white voter to have their mail-in ballot rejected. Rejection of Black in-person votes, according to a US Civil Rights Commission study in Florida, ran 14.3% or one in seven ballots cast.”
"[…] Democracy can win* despite the 2.3% suppression headwind.
And that’s our job as Americans: to end the purges, the vigilante challenges, the ballot rejections and the attitude that this is all somehow OK."
Anyone who tried to pressure Democrats into being a “no genocide” option was screamed at by the same pro-genocide centrists who are now blaming them for Harris’ loss. But yeah, you sound real broken up about there being no “disagree with you about genocide” option.
I also voted for Harris, despite her support for your genocide.
If you’re going to quote me, use all of what I said. You left out the “by the end of the campaigning.” part.
At the end of the day, I voted for Harris and voted against an accelerated genocide because the final choice after months of atrocious debates and rushed campaigning and people rightfully calling out Netanyahu’s campaign against Gaza and the Palestinians a genocide, no matter who was funding Israel. But people wanted to talk about Genocide Joe like he was masterminding the entire genocide and ignoring Trump literally threatening to make it worse by telling Netanyahu he can have all the money and weapons he wants to finish it quickly.
Biden didn’t mastermind shit. He mindlessly followed the leader of a genocidal regime.
Holy fucking shit you’re literally proving my point. You’re so focused on Joe Biden’s passive participation you’re ignoring Trump actively making it worse. Do you agree that Trump is making the genocide worse?
Selling weapons isn’t passive.
Well, it’s bad enough that some centrists are finally admitting that it is a genocide, so yeah. It’s your wing of the party’s only policy, so I don’t see why you’re so upset that it’s being carried out by a kindred spirit.
I guess I have to preface everything I say with a disclaimer of pro-genocide centrist talking points in order to satisfy the trump-adjacent wing of the party.
