    First, don’t vote for genociders. I think if that isn’t the limit, you don’t have one and might as well admit to being a supporter of genocide.

    Cool headline, but ultimately just another call to have people throw their votes to a third-party candidate in protest

    Those who organize to vote third party do a better job at building leverage for their interests than sheepdogs that try to convince people to Vite Blue No Matter Who. Which one is throwing a vote away? You don’t even register on Dems’ radar as anything other than a “likely Dem voter” to maybe send a volunteer out to remind you to vote.

    …which could just lead to Trump’s victory, which the article itself acknowledges would be the worst possible outcome.

    The article does not say that. It is very clear on its line that neither party is the one to fight for black people. I have to assume you simply didn’t read it.

    The time to fight the Democratic leadership is unfortunately past

    The time to fight oppressive genociders never passes. Please stop telling other people to give up their fight for justice. I’m getting white moderate vibes from your comment.

    PS Harris has never won a single state in a Democratic primary. What in earth do you think was the right time and right method of opposition and building if leverage? The party just dictated all of this at you and now you carry water for it.

    and the only way forward to being able to win going forward is to vote for Harris.

    To win what? The thesis of this article is that black people don’t win regardless of which party has the presidency. Who are you talking to and do they understand what you mean by “win”?

    Voting for Trump (or casting a third-party candidate, essentially the same thing) is guaranteed to make things much worse.

    Voting for a third party is not the same as voting for Trump. Get that nonsense out if here.
