We have a fascistic, racist, liar occupying the White House. But don’t bother arguing with me or anyone else on this app about why they have to vote for Biden’s antiblackness. Your racist apologia doesn’t make you the adult in the room +
Let’s get this out the way— I don’t view Black people’s liberation solely through the limits of a capitalist, racist national two-party system.
But what about Trump? What about a Black VP? +

I can assure you, the 10x greater Black/white wealth gap, 50% Black male unemployment in some major cities, and 2.5X higher rate of officers killing our people will not hinge on either a) you arguing with somebody on twitter or b) a Harris, or Abrams, or Bass vice presidency
The problems facing Black people are longer and deeper than any racist in the White House or his symbolically appointed VP can provide. And I do mean any racist. It’s bi-partisan.
Dictating how people should vote #onhere ignores how the presidential election process works. Your racist apologia online won’t change a damn thing in states where the election is already decided. Alabama is not swinging to Joe just bc you wanted to argue with someone on Twitter
If you wanted to be a useful racist apologist, make calls in swing states where the election will actually be decided. Do some socially distanced door knocking Ohio. Holla at them folks in Milwaukee.
And then AFTER THAT organize in the streets for whoever is in the White House come January 2021.
But what you NOT gone do is convince me that Biden holds the keys to Black freedom +

WE hold the keys to our freedom.
And NONE of us knows what will ultimately unlock it. We’ve had over 60 years of Black thought, debate, death, and sacrifice since the Voting Rights Act.
Our outcomes have improved in some areas, declined in others

The struggle will last another, 15, 25, 50 years if not more.
We can’t afford to be shortsighted and hinge our future on any single presidency. Come TF on.

Spend more time organizing where you are than arguing for white racists online & vote how *you* see fit. And thass all I’ma say about that
