    Affordable Care Act, LGBTQ rights, marijuana reform…not to mention a Black man was president, and a Black woman is the party nominee.

    You forgot that the black woman is also the sitting vice president.

      How does that meme go?

      “I hear the next [drones] will be sent by a woman” “Really makes you feel like you’re part of history”

      Black people becoming head executors of a white supremacist, imperialist state is not actually progress. Hillary being elected would not have been progress just because she was a woman. Her individual careerism and cynical exploitation of being a woman does not help the average woman, it just helps her. Obama was happy to oversee a brutal financial abuse of black homeowners circa 2008 while bailing out banks. Harris, well, you can look at her own record with families in her handling of truancy and with people of color as “California’s Top Cop”. “But she was just doing her job” is the Nuremberg defense; She could have been doing a lot of other things, but I guess she decided this was the best course of action for her career (and she was apparently right).

      These people are traitors to the groups you are identifying them with. They’re sick bastards who are happy to bleed the working class dry. Don’t let such shallow methods of manipulation get to you.
