Then what conclusion is meant to be drawn in this meme by bringing that data point up?
To expose the hypocrisy in people group A (white voters) getting less attack and blame than people group B (Arab American voters et al), despite being two orders of magnitude larger.
In other words, to expose leftist infighting that disproportionately benefits the status quo and could lead to unjustified xenophobic violence. Thanks for your question. :)
I mean, at this point, most of us talking about politics already know that the majority of white folk in the US are fascist (or, in terms the mainstream media prefers to use, ‘Republican’). That’s like talking about the sky being blue. No one is talking about the white vote because we already expected the majority to vote for the oppression of minority groups, like they have in the past (at minimum) 10 presidential elections. That minority groups have increased their support for the oppression of minority groups is much more noteworthy.
Is using it as an example of leopards eating peoples’ faces an attack or blame, just to clarify?
I don’t know what that leopards thing is, or after googling, care.
An entirely different matter is “solidarity is over/I have no more sympathy for X ethnic group/I hope you suffer X hate crime.” Very real and material statements I have seen.
People who support something bad being surprised when that bad thing happens to them.
Then we’re in agreement there. There’s no excuse for that.
Hell yeah! Thanks 🤝
I’ve been arguing for years with my dipshit white Trump voting family and acquaintances.
I expect it. They’re dumb as shit.
Now I have to worry about supposed progressives voting in such a way so as to bring about another Trump/conservative presidency?
This is exhausting.
To just be very clear again, that did not happen. Some ~10million voters had extreme apathy, and that incredibly tiny fraction of “supposed progressive voters” did not effect the outcome. If you believe they did, you are unfortunately falling for propaganda.
