“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."
it’s past the election, it would be great to have the conversations that are needed but we couldn’t have before the election.
The “we can’t have this conversation right now” thing was a fucking excuse to continue enabling the genocide. Centrists will never admit they were horribly, monstrously wrong to support genocide.
It’s all they ever were, and all they will ever be.
That is it though, where are all those “we can’t have this conversation right now” people now? This is the time to have the conversation. Hello?

In case you missed it, they’re blaming everyone that they told to shut up because “we can’t have this conversation right now”. Now it’s too fucking late, and that was absolutely the entire idea. If Harris had won, the line would be “give her some time” until it was “too close to midterms to have this conversation.”
There’s never time to have any conversation. Centrists just move to the right. They do not listen to anyone to their left, ever, for any reason.

Cool. Let’s start with the facts: Netanyahu is committing genocide. He was committing genocide during the Biden administration. Biden supported him and was wrong to do so. Do you accept this as true?

Fuck yes, along with suppressing dissent and legitimate protest about it in likely unlawful ways, and also applying unjust pressure on the ICC to exempt Western aligned war criminals, thus degrading the rule of law all over the globe.
