   Some good always comes out of bad.

   Maybe this time, this election will finally teach the Dems that they need to run on a platform that fights to fix the issues Black people face instead of assuming they get their vote.

   Being tacitly racist instead of overly racist is no where near good enough!

     Unfortunately, I don't believe that the Dems will learn anything. Neither Dem voters, nor Dem politicians.🤷🏿♂️

     Since the loss, I've already seen Dem voters get fragile at the fact that the majority of white women voted for Trump. People have tried to call white women voters "a minority," even though "white women" is literally the largest race/gender voting cohort.🤡

     I've already seen Dem politicians suggest that they didn't pander to the right *enough*, and they'll go further next time.🤡

     Black voters have spent the past 80 years as the only obstacle between the world, and far-right people having unfettered control of the US executive, legislative, and judicial branches.

     Well, it didn't work. We tried. Now those white voters finally have everything that they've wanted. They have their new Fuhrer.

     The only good I can think comes from this, is that I don't have to warn people about this stuff ever again. There is no more risk. It's actualized.🤷🏿♂️
