It doesn't make sense to not listen to marginalized groups and then try to appeal to their morality. "Oh but if you dont vote for my platform that doesnt include you then I will suffer." Ppl who didn't care when it was someone else dont get to play the morality card.

Tired of hearing "it is not a race or gender war but a class war." It is all of the above. No one said it had to be either/or. The people saying that only care about class because it is the only part they think affects THEM.

Yes I spoke in plain English. I hate when people play dumb. You will say ANYTHING to avoid accountability for saying "I told you a black woman couldn't do it." I hope that makes you feel good about yourself and that you will continue to enjoy putting down the people who dare to try. I'm done.

Fascism always attacks women, minorities, LGBTQ, disabled ppl. Yet the solution is for us to "forget about identity" & unify with enablers who will not reflect? Just so it won't affect YOU. It still will us, just more quietly. If we dont kill the root, idc. I will not sacrifice myself for your sake.

A critique of labor unions decades ago in the US is that they mainly benefited white men. If we focus only on a "class war" mostly white men get more $ in a better economy and women are still made more dependent on men. All while we have social media saying to put us in our place. It isnt hope to me

I do not know how to get people to understand the concept of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Unless more people stop saying "a woman cant win," a woman will never win. It is demoralizing and does more damage to sway public opinion than any blatant misogynist can ever do. Stop manifesting their world.

You are just missing the point and doubling down. I SEE it. I am not going to give a racist influence over my opinions and try to convince others not to. It takes time to change public opinion. Saying "I told you so" just reinforces that opinion. Does nothing. Makes it worse. So it IS racist.

GOP wanted Talarico to win because they know how to defeat him. They are used to running against a moderate Christian white guy. Texans are being manipulated way too easily. Crockett would have energized voters more and I doubt Talarico will win in November.

Other white southerners, a lesson too late: if Billy Bob says "I will never vote for a black woman" and 5 people hear that and say "white men won't vote for a woman. She cant win" and vote for the white guy, the FIVE PEOPLE are the reason she lost. Why are you voting based on Billy Bob, the racist?

I frankly dont care about a difference of opinion. I need people to understand that if 1 racist guy says that and 5 people say "well she cant win" and then vote for the white guy, the 5 PEOPLE are the reason she lost and basing their votes on a racist. Therefore it is racist.

That's racism and misogyny with an extra step. You can fight that kind of oversimplified opinion. Instead you are just repeating it. Then next time it'll be the same story because all you're doing is saying racists and misogynists opinions = reality.

Comments like that just reinforce racism and misogyny but ok. Also Harris and Crockett arent the same person. Are you gonna say "Talarico cant win Texas because Beto didn't and he is also a white guy?" No.

They should have already learned that lesson with Beto, but they will do the same thing 200 times. On time 201 they will still say "only a moderate white guy can win TX"

I didn't say people shouldn't vote but there are definitely a lot of people, especially young people, who dont show up because moderates are not proposing what they want. I am saying it is better to win them than try winning MAGA. Which is what Talarico is doing.

My main issue: majority of white people always say we need to win over MAGA. Better policies would help everyone, but centering to include MAGA's wishes helps white people more. Which is what MAGA wants. We could win without MAGA votes if candidates were progressive enough to win ppl who dont vote.

Do not say it is because Talarico is the only one who can win. Mansplainer just told me the poll where Crockett has better odds was fake news paid for by Republicans and asked me "are you new to politics?" Lol. Just say "I am a white guy who likes white male moderates." You can just say that.

I think Joe Biden did a pretty good job considering the disaster he inherited. Talarico is not that progressive, so unless he's going to ban grocery stores from price gouging or something, I don't want to hear the "trying to win moderates" playbook recited. I voted for Crockett yesterday.

Texas primary senate race: At first, I was more drawn to Crockett, then it seemed to me like Talarico was the better speaker overall...But a good point was made that he is more likely to lean moderate once in office. Crockett has already proven she will fight in Congress. So my mind is made up.
