Here's why racism was to blame: Being not-Trump should be enough for any white voter if we truly care about ending white supremacy in the US. Being so privileged that we can demand to be excited by our leaders, as if it's entertainment, is peak white supremacy. Re-read your words very carefully.

I voted for Kamala and I was excited to do so. Specifically because she was not Trump. I only get one vote. I'm sorry, but in a democracy it's whoever gets the most votes. So yeah, the game requires their voters to be excited and out of their house and to the ballot box. Kamala lost that battle.

Dude, I'm literally trying to point out that complaining Kamala lost "because of white people" leaves you in the exact same losing boat in 2026 and 2028. She lost the turnout battle. We need to find out how to fix it for the future. Find solutions instead of problems. Offer real left policies.

Harris presented thee most progressive presidential campaign that had realistic plans & goals the fact that you're so invested in shifting the blame away from the problem tells me all i need to know about you & i don't have time to waste on you anymore muted

What is your “real left policy” to overcome the racism in this country that’s having an impact on millions of Americans?

We can start by rebuilding the DOE and funding our schools across America, and giving our teachers huge pay raises to increase the quality of education. Free school lunches for every student in America. Properly teach the civil war and the failed punishment of the south. Healthcare for all. Good?

That's cuz white people didn't try hard enough & didn't care enough cuz we aren't scared of it. white supremacy benefits us, so we don't have to fear a nation being ruled by it. We also don't care enough about non-white people to do the right thing. We always choose the white thing. Collectively.

Also, instead of continuing to argue with people over this, I highly recommend you actually start listening and contemplating. Why are there so many people in this conversation this morning disagreeing with you? We all can't be wrong. Humble yourself and open your mind.

Millions of evangelical Christians, the GOP's most dependable & motivated voting block, were told Kamala Harris is a baby killing, demonic Jezebel by their pastors & trusted religious leaders. They voted against her by 80+ points. Racism & misogyny was definitely a major factor.
