Two troubling new studies find that lies about the 2020 election tapped into racist attitudes and white America’s long-standing fear of a real multiracial democracy. Read about the studies here: bit.ly/3Jqxp6A

We didn’t need a study to grasp this

100%. My first reaction to this was, "Who is this for?" I feel like the people who already or are even capable of grasping this reality don't need this or any other study, while the people who don't or can't will continue to elude their awakening no matter how many studies they are presented.

This was obvious to every Black voter in America in real time.

White people hate Black people more than they love themselves and until they fix that shit, we will always be *here*.

That still doesn’t explain why a lot of minorities still voted for Trump!

I only concern myself with Black people - and per the numbers, WE didn’t. We all know why Latinos and Asians voted the way they did. If you don’t… books and research abound, friend.

Because they hate immigrants who compete for scarce resources more than they hate Trump. Economics 101

It's cool that someone researched this, but it doesn't tell us anything we already didn't know empirically by just observing.

At its heart the whole Trump/MAGA thing is really about racism. It resonates on a powerful emotional level with them and makes it really hard for them to play well with others.
