Poll Who Are You Voting For?

Who Are You Voting For? (Votes Are Anonymous)

  • Trump

  • Harris

  • I'm Not Voting

Results are only viewable after voting.
The percentage of those NOT voting in this election is wack and kind of sad. It’s not the statement ppl think it is, and Sends the wrong message that you okay with ppl who in position to simply mess over the population with whatever kind of playbook they want to do it with impunity. That you just cool with that 👎🏽

We’ve already shown that we are a very important voting bloc. Time to make them feel the consequences of not paying attention to our specific needs

We might understand it like that, but the people with money (which is basically stored super meter) and influence who also opposed to us don’t look at it that way. Opting out altogether isn’t a power move, it’s bowing down. It just create the space for people to more easily come in and use money and influence to overthrow the system and strip away privileges one by one…they start by setting up false judges, false witnesses, this and that. I mean, come on. We learned this lesson from the Lion King except they didn’t use money to do it. lol.

Is opting pretty much the same as protesting??

Disengaging with nothing but your dick in your hand isn't the way to get there tho. That's what niggas don't seem to understand. The changes are not going to happen overnight. It's going to take multiple, probably several voting cycles to get things where they need to be. What some of you are engaging in is hustling backwards.

Maybe it doesn't hurt some of you to not vote and have trump in office the next 4 years but it can potentially hurt other black people down the line. It's bigger than you.

That’s my issue… if WE all did it TOGETHER, we could be putting real pressure on the ones DEPENDING on our votes.

But niggas so scared to miss out on some crumbs

People that are going to make the changes need to be put in place. That will take years of voting. Disengaging doesn't guarantee anything but more losses.

I hear you, and admittedly… it’s a lot easier for me to say that since I live in California. We ain’t going for that Trump shit over here.

But I’m not saying we have to disengage completely. There are things down ballot I’m still voting on.

Specifically…

Prop 6 (end forced prison labor aka slavery)

Prop 32 (raise minimum wage to $18)

Prop 33 (MOTHERFUCKING RENT CONTROL!!!)

But no more am I voting to put people in power who outright reject doing things for US, like they do for others or themselves in the hopes that one day in the future they have a change of heart.

The cognitive dissonance is outstanding. Blasting Harris for not being black and not having black specific policies then run to Trump, lol. And dude is Haitian at that! 😂

Black Trump supporters that crash out for Trump like dude belong in the Coon of the Year thread.

Okay yes thank you. This the post I was looking to make, but I didn’t have to make it. Lol.
These republicans don’t play the “all or nothing” game. They hand them votes over no doubt and inch their way in the direction they want. But yea black people don’t exactly operate in unison like that, but that’s fine. The Democratic Party is bigger than just our black people and most of the party on the same page.
 
It's a few posts back or hell might be on this same page

But the issue with a lot of people seems to be two of them

1) single issue voting. If ______ not on the ballot or directly addressed, I'm not voting

2) a piggyback off one but if there isn't anything tangible they can personally benefit from, I'm not voting

You can't give birth so you don't give a shit about women who can

You not a first time home buyer, so you don't give a shit about other people who will be
