Finally some terms I can understand

why wont the black men?
-
The majority of white women always vote Republican and that's just fine. 12% of Black men lean Republican and we get article after article about what's wrong with us.

First it was "if you don't vote for me you're not Black", which is incredibly racist.
Now, "it's shut up and vote for the person we tell you to vote for".
Amazing.
Would they do this with women or would they offer something by way of policy promises?

That's a shit take on the fact that he was speaking about misogyny and you interpreted it as marching orders and even confused who said what is hilarious here.
Do better.

Dismissing the issue at hand as simply misogyny is outright lazy or incredibly disingenuous. The messaging from the Democratic party towards Black males has been woeful for many years, including (somewhat ironically) during the Obama era - "a rising tide lifts all boats", orly?
Other groups are offered policy change. Black men are told to "shut up and vote", or else.
I suggest you follow your own advice and "do better", your response gives the impression of one without a clue.

Obama's policies were a disaster

Remember when this guy drank the water at Flint, too bad you can't drone strike lead pipes

I remember that your comments always focus on criticizing Democrats and Democrats alone.

Wow, The comments here are an absolute shitshow.
Be as upset as you want with Obama or Biden. But remember, neither of them are on the table for this next election cycle.
Look at the guy who submitted the article. It was 100% a call to arms for tankies, accelerationists, and other bad actors.
But NPR is the one who actually wrote the article. So wouldn't the blame be on them? OP didn't write it, he just posted it.
Fortunately their hand-picked successor is on the ballot!
You Lemmy.ml people asked Biden to step down because he's old. What did you expect? He stepped down because he's old just like you wanted, and even endorsed a candidate who doesn't have any dementia at all. Who did you expect him to endorse, Mao's zombie?
I mean, downvote all you want but they're right. No one picked Harris except for Joe Biden. The primary was half assed at best, and there was no democratic process to select the Democratic party nominee. You're insane if you don't think that Biden's dementia wouldn't have surface during an actual primary process. We could have easily avoided this Trump apocalypse if the Democratic establishment let us have a real primary.
