“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."
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.
