You seem really intent on protecting white voters who voted to discriminate against and harm non-whites from the consequences of their votes.
I never said or implied that white voters were not also harmed by predatory capitalism. But there’s a real big difference between fighting against predatory practices and trying to harness them to hurt people you don’t like.

What you’re leaving out (I suspect intentionally) is that the rural voters who consistently vote against their own interests — as long as those votes also work against other people — are overwhelmingly white. It’s the same mindset, and sometimes the same people, that has historically fought against people of color in America.
It’s not two conflicting thoughts, it’s two facets of the same problem.

Wonder whether they included the Elon+1000 and Can'tBlockHim mods in this version?
