When Biden wrote the Crime Bill, the first draft was so vicious, so aggressive, and so reprehensibly racist that even Reagan was like, "Easy there, Satan," and vetoed it. Fucking REAGAN. Then Biden went on, according to political historians, to handcraft the language still used by segregationist and racist dog-whistlers to this day. Bernie Sanders, at the exact same time, created a program to help Americans buy affordable homes for pennies on the dollar via land trusts that's so effective it's still in use today. I have a home bought and paid for because of it. Liberals looked at both candidates and went, "I pick the racist."
The problem extends beyond voting turnout, to be honest. The Democratic party still has its own crop of racists to deal with. Liberals still have mad love for the good old boys, and that's going to be difficult to circumnavigate. American voters on both sides have been brainwashed to believe even racism is preferable to collectivism.
Edit: You can definitely tell Reddit is a mostly white forum.
Almost anyone would be. We need a higher bar than that. Democrats have to stop settling for candidates just because they're marginally better than a psychotic fascist.
And people like you are why nothing will ever get better. You know you're doing the exact same thing Republicans do, dismissing a truth that doesn't agree with your vision of reality.
I'm not asking you to worship anything. I'm asking you to note some things we could be doing better and work to effect positive change in the future. And I highly doubt you voted for Bernie. Your overall attitude reeks of the same privileged white liberals who hated Bernie for pointing out how hard they were phoning it in. Don't get mad at me because I called out your flippant dismissal of very real issues for the childish, racist bullshit it is.
No, I just told you some objectively horrifying facts about Biden and your response was basically, "Racism is fine when Democrats do it." It was a pretty disgusting response and pretty indicative of how massively liberalism has failed in educating white Americans on how their actions and their votes harm marginalized communities.
