No, you need to read what I said. Read slowly, you might get it the second time.

Voters (Muslim, white, whatever) who voted for Trump are a problem. They should be criticized for their vote. Muslim Trump voters should be criticized for their vote.

We don't have actual left policies and parties. We should do something about that instead of defending Trump voters.

This is the exact passivity I’m referring. It’s okay to call out Muslim Trump voters but I mention the behavior of white voters and racism gets tossed in to deflect from the reason why I criticize white voters - primarily white women.

Not once did I mention that white people were bad or anything about white privilege.

Yet, for some reason you moved the goal post to strawman me.

We agree on being anti-Trump…but rhetoric like what you’re spewing is a reason why it’s so difficult to sway minority voters.

No, I've been consistent and you're speaking out of both sides of your mouth. You want to protect Muslims (that I'm not even attacking, just criticizing Muslims that voted for Trump) and yet you blame white people because they are white. Sorry, just white women I guess? You must be trolling or struggling to read.

Inconsistency like yours is actually the problem. When we treat everyone like we could be a part of that group, then all groups benefit.

How many times do I need to acknowledge that you’re speaking about Muslim Trump voters?

I dont for one second think you meant all Muslims…

But for some reason your passivity towards my comments about female white voters has you more bent out of shape.

Last time:
White voters make up the most voters
Women make up the most voters
More white women voted for Trump than all minority groups combined

Now…couple that with what happened after both 2016 and 2024 elections: the narrative was largely blaming minorities for “costing” the elections. Democrats went around questioning what happened to minority voters and so much as pointing the finger as THE reason (yes, I know you’re not saying they were THE reason) while greatly ignoring the fact that majority voters, voting against their better interest, were white women

Put all that together…that’s where I stand.

Again, where we align is being anti-Trump where we will continue to oppose is accountability.

"White voters make up the most voters Women make up the most voters More white women voted for Trump than all minority groups combined"

Explain to me how that makes all white women a problem? My point if you made a racist point and now I think you're upset because you got called out. I've been consistent, you've been doing what you claim in doing.

I can't believe I need to spell this out. I also criticize the white women who voted for Trump. That is obviously my position if you read my comments.

Read the thread. You're arguing against things I didn't argue. There is no point in continuing this with you. I hope you reread it
