    You’re going to have to internalize the fact that “leftists” aren’t the reason Kamala lost

    The voters who voted for Biden and then stayed home for Kamala were boomers and older millennials, more specifically the white men/women and hispanic men from those age groups.

          The only group which voted in the majority for Trump were white people. This is literally racist propaganda.

            Only if you blame these groups for not turning out for Harris. If you lay the responsibility at the feet of the Harris organization and the DNC at large for being out of touch of the needs of their coalition, then that’s not racist.

            Its not, but that does not change the fact that we as leftists are ignoring this front on the class war and it is to our detriment.

                I never said they were leftists. I did say we need our own progressive party and to aim for local elections. Voting blue is a last resort.
