Black people are less than 13% of the population. Of that 13% maybe 10% is eligible to vote. Of that 10% maybe 7 or 8% do if that's in line with the general trend of voting patterns in America.
How many elections have been decided solely off the black vote? Where is this narrative that black people are somehow the deciding factor on whether democrats or Republicans win? We are no more special than literally any other adult that is eligible to vote and we vote based on our interests.
A person's environment is a major factor that just seems to keep getting glossed over. A black man that grew up around Caucasians and lives in a white suburb is far more likely to vote the same as his neighbors than a black man that lives in a black neighborhood. I really dislike this assumption that we're a hivemind.
When it comes to the threat of racism, I think we CAN get on code as it were because most black people aren't naive enough to think america isn't racist. It's a threat that affects you regardless of age or status. The party that is explicitly racist is telling you you're not welcome and your other choices are a third party(like green or socialist) that is explicitly anti racist and has a reparations agenda, or the democrats who are telling you that you're welcome but don't expect to get very much stuff just for you as a group if they can't make the case that everyone in America will benefit.
How many black people have even come close to the republican nomination for president? The history speaks for itself.
Shout out to her for trying tho, get your clicks and engagement. She's not attacking electoral politics in general from an anarchist perspective, and she's not advancing a third party alternative either. She's doing what a lot of Tariq stans do and just engaging in substance less pessimism.
Again, if you're going to call out the democrats then prop UP someone better. Otherwise all you're doing is telling people to not vote. And if you're going to do that, then prop UP social movements happening RIGHT now. And if you're not going to do that either, then what the fukk are you doing other than whining at a camera all day.
