   Advance warning to the white reply guys:

   anything along the lines of "but kamala's identity scares me/means she can't win/she's not electable/ i'm mad she's a woman/i'm mad she's Black/this isn't smart/i'm scared about kamala" gets you a perma block

   i'm not saying it again, it will be swift and you won't see it coming

     Yup. Yup.

     Racism and misogyny have permanent doors into every US political movement, including those on the left, and those door don’t even have locks installed. Keeping them shut is a never-ending job.

     I mean, yes, absolutely, and I absolutely expect bullshit at every step of this process. Ultimately defeating fascism is the goal, and we’re going to have to swim through an ocean of bullshit together to get there. But let’s at least remain clear that it is bullshit.

     If they pick anyone else it's bullshit. We will lose, voters of color, women and others will sit it out. She's entirely more qualified than Trump, She is certainly better or at the very least equally qualified as anyone
