@hbuchel@mekkaokereke I'm definitely not saying that Black women should do all the work. They have done more than any other group. My issue was only with pointing out white women as a monolith and not pointing out any men in this post.
@mekkaokereke thanks for erasing the work I did for this one. I never said you had to curate your posts for me. I'm pointing out some trends counter to your argument that it seems other people are pointing out to you too and trying to explain how blanket statements on any group are harmful.
@mekkaokereke I don't actually follow you so, no I don't see your other statements about white men. I saw this one. You gave a pass to Latino men. You didn't mention other groups. You gave simplistic interpretations of only one group and ignored all the other groups that swung right while this one swung left even if the percent isn't enough yet.
@mekkaokereke I didn't say that white women aren't racist. My issue is that you're only calling out white women. Why are you only calling out women? You're not calling out men at all. So it comes across as if it's all our fault. You're treating my group like a monolith but none of the other groups. I worked hard to register people to vote this election. I worked hard to get people to vote this election. I talked to my fellow white people. And black and brown.
@mekkaokereke I'm sorry but your sexism is showing. By only pointing out white women again and again. Like only white women are a monolith and have the responsibility for preventing trump. Let's ignore all the other groups in the room and put this at women's feet again
@mekkaokereke the entire country is to blame for this disaster. None of the groups are a monolith. None of the groups deserve blanket statements. My life and the lives of all people with wombs are at risk and we wake up to being blamed for the result of this election? I'm tired. It was a good argument in 2016. It's not a good argument in 2024.
@mekkaokereke I found the demographics article used here. I agree that more white women voted for Trump than Harris, but only those without a college degree. If I look at the trends and the rest of the data from the article, I see women trending down for trump while every category of men trended up. So yes, we can keep pointing the finger at white women but it's starting to feel a bit like scapegoating. We also can't know how much their husbands coerced their votes. https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2024/politics/2020-2016-exit-polls-2024-dg/
