Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Kamala Harris lost because her campaign turned the racism dial to the sour spot. If she had been more progressive she'd have more votes from those who decided to sit this one out. If she went full overtly islamophobic rather than this unholy mixture of quietly abetting genocide, bipartisan respectability politics and identity politics, she would have gotten some more votes from the white supremacist crowd which overwhelmingly voted for Trump but instead just left EVERYONE comfused and alienated.
I'm not even sure about that last part. The chuds know they are being pandered to. They can trust Trump to do the things he promises. They can't trust Kamala even if she runs to the right of Trump. With Trump every failure can be blamed on the Deep State because he's their guy. With Kamala every failure is expected, as she's a liberal and obviously using the racism dial.
She didn't have to be all that progressive either. She could have been as progressive as Biden 2020 and that might have gotten her 10 million extra votes.
That's the thing...no she wouldn't...she's a black woman, the white supremacists would always choose Trump.
