    They’re trying to group them all together, and that’s not fair for this one. Around 78% of black men voted for Harris, as opposed to the around 44% of Latino men. They’re trying to distract us from the fact that a good portion of this was from white voters by mentioning Latinos anyway. Like, “How did we vote facisim. We didn’t vote for him.” That’s all I see articles for. Where are the articles breaking down why over 50% of white women voted for their own subjugation? They’re so used to black people being the scape goat, they throw us in there even when we had little impact on it.

      its a fair point, but 90% of black men voted for Biden. The slide did contribute to loss.

      78% of black men who voted. Now, just for funsies, what is the percentage of Black men who chose not to vote, and by acclimation, and I use that word charitably, didn’t vote for Harris thereby giving their missing Harris vote to Trump?

      More Latinos voted for Donald Trump than have ever voted for any Republican candidate ever before.

      You can spin all you like. Democrats lost every swing state and control of the Senate.

        Hint, I bet you a hundred bucks that answer would dwarf whatever bullshit your trying to push.

        Fix you own shortcomings there my guy.

            Percentage by ethic group to see how badly each group fucked us over and even with knowing damn well that this nation goes out of its way to ensure minorities, blacks in particular, can’t vote, i’d still take that double bet.

            Get your racist house in order before you start disparaging minorities that tried to save your asses yet again.

        How exactly do you give a missing vote to Trump? If they didn’t vote then neither candidate got that vote.

          A non-vote is exactly the same as voting for the winner.

          If you would have voted for the winner, then not voting didn’t matter because your candidate won anyway.

          If you would have voted for the loser, then your non-vote reduced the chance for your candidate to win; which mathematically in a FPTP system means it increased the chance for your opponent to win.

          Though, it is one way to always be on the winning team. /s
