🤔This is an article attempting to understand Black men voters' lack of enthusiasm for Biden... that doesn't include the word "police" once. Like, not even included once!

Y'all aren't even pretending to listen.

The article also repeats the lie that Black people didn't turn out for Hilary like they did for Obama, which is another not so veiled way of victim-blaming Black people for the most successful and egregious voter suppression campaign in modern US election history

@mekkaokereke Detroit citizen (Rashida Talib's district). King Soloman Baptist Church is in gentrified Detroit. To say its on the west side is deceptive, its closer to the SW side of the city.

Furthermore, when a politician goes to Detroit and they want to talk to locals who wont call them out, they either go to these types of churches or go to the suburbs. Furthermore, Detroit was ground 0 when the financial crisis struck. Just because he found a bunch of uninformed clowns doesnt mean much.

I have the strong impression that the people who are running the Democratic party are committing electoral malpractice on a number of different levels. I began to panic when they decided to dump the entirety of our legislative political capital on infrastructure instead of voting rights.

@mekkaokereke Hey, thanks for posting this piece, I'd missed it!

Also relevant to the conversation I overheard in a Milpitas parking lot a three weeks ago.

@mekkaokereke I wouldn't mind if he'd roll some tanks into a few asshole republican governor's mansions, but other than that, he's fighting fascism -albeit slowly & quietly- for all of us
