I knew this would be the reaction to the Roe decision. I get it. I find it scary too. Never in my life would I think Roe would be overturned. I would have guessed a World War or a "global pandemic" before that happened.
What we're not gonna do though is trot out these articles from 2020, not after a bunch of y'all claimed victory over the 'not voting disinformation campaigns' like ADOS/FBA; because unsurprisingly black voters were unfazed or unaware such campaigns even existed in the first place and turned out to vote in 2020. Just like black folks turn out every election cycle, That's right, I mean 2016 of course.
Russians influencing black people on the internet to stay home is way way way way down the list of why HRC lost. There's no national election in which black people don't do their part relative to everyone else. It's not our fault when Democrats lose elections. Racking our brains and being hyperfocused over the marginal impact this online infiltration has on registered or even would-be black voters is not good politics at all. Give black people or people in general something to vote for or even a compelling reason and they will turn out in numbers that will overwhelmingly counteract any internet disinformation campaign that would otherwise deter them from voting.
But no, if the midterms and elections don't go the Democrat's way we're going to see online influence and disinformation be the number#1 narrative surrounding black voters, not any substantive reasons why black turnout might have dipped. Let's not pretend otherwise, this will be the focus. and it's not a winning one.
I missed out on all the fukkery. Bright and early tho
