  • Yes. :( Fortunately the mods and general vibe here are okay but Instagram and Reddit are rife with it. Twitter is… even worse.

    Just wanted to put some love and acknowledgement out there in the face of that insanity. :)

  • Southerners are fully capable of making informed decisions, and at some point you just stop having sympathy for the ones who could choose to be better but don’t.

    There’s another confusion! I don’t know where you got the idea that this post was about sympathy for bad people when explicitly it talks about good people in the post. Super important! This is about solidarity across class lines. I would never and have never denied this and all of my comments here reflect that.

  • An oppressed minority still means that there’s an oppressive majority who voted to hurt themselves.

    Yup!

  • I’ll say it one more time: ignoring a culture war being fought against you doesn’t make it go away, even if it’s just a proxy for a class war.

    I agree! I don’t see why you brought this up but I agree! Lol.

  • Perhaps what you misunderstand is the concept of intersectional disenfranchisement. If I am a Black woman, and my mother was a Black woman, and her mother was a Black woman, then statistically and historically in the U.S., only 1/3 of us had the opportunity to vote in our daughter’s best interest due to the compounded effects of anti-Black and anti-woman status quos (not to mention other factors like anti-poverty, anti-queerness, religious discrimination, migrant discrimination, abuse of the the felony system to make free labor, and many more). When I speak today, I carry not just my own voice, but the silenced ones of those who came before me, denied the right to shape the future they birthed.

    And because of that generational silencing, my daughter and I live with the consequences — in the schools we attend, the care we receive, the safety we’re afforded, and the doors still closed to us. We did not vote for this.

  • You are right you didn’t say it doesn’t, nor would I ever shove words in your mouth like that.

    What you did say is “[your examples showing an ongoing issue between before 1920-today] are from 60 years ago” blatantly false! 2025 is today. ;)

    You act as though I railed against the notion of voter suppression

    No I act as though, under a comment affirming the dignity of the oppressed despite their separation from democratic self-determination, you started chirping about how I’m ignoring trans people or something. That’s pretty disingenuous to me, sorry not sorry.

  • i think some people interpret “full of” differently and that’s a fair gripe to have with this post

    as i said in the body text, feel free to swap in “has a lot of” if that’s more familiar language to you :)

  • hence they couldn’t vote for the way things are

    and still can’t. voter repression still happens. in 2025. said it before. you ignored it. brought it back up again. you called me an ass. said it a third time, and you called me bad faith.

    i gave a timeline of problems (A B C) and you ignored the most recent, most relevant, date in the timeline C three times. three times you ignored C. just to be clear. my point is C. the current ongoing crisis is C. C is the issue i am concerned about in making this entire post. C is proof that the progress of A and B has not come to fruition.

    thank you for your time.

  • yeah :( exactly. this conversation was about voting suppression and somehow you immediately jumped to the assumption that me recognizing that there’s an oppressed minority of good people (INCLUDING TRANS FOLKS BY THE WAY) who have by and large been kept from democratic self-determination through systemic forces means…

    (shuffles chronically online internet argument deck)

    that i want to ignore trans rights?

    for the record, no, i believe the opposite. i believe that my trans neighbors (and family, fyi) in the south exist and are worthy of recognition and support, in spite of the voting bloc they are surrounded by and historically been kept from engaging with.

    i hope this is informative and corrects your misconstruals. you are shadow boxing against a position that i don’t think anyone here has. feel free to ask any questions as i am willing to give the benefit of the doubt that this was an honest misunderstanding.

  • Sometimes seeing the numbers is the most meaningful! Even in a 70/30 state that’s still 3 in 10 people who didn’t ask for this—maybe more if, as is sometimes found, Democrats gain more votes when polls become more accessible.

    Thanks for sharing!

  • (Personally for me it was the “cousin fucking” language that gave me the wrong impression. Not to tone police, that’s just kind of how I got to where I was because that’s very common in circles that tend to do dehumanizing .)

  • Hey dude I just came here to spread a message of kindness to a minority of good people in tough geopolitical situations that we see them and are there for them, and that even though they might be surounded by evil actors and a history of violence and abuse, that we will fight for them.

    Your words and choices here are making that shitty. Check yourself. You’re being mean. Cheers.

    you: THAT WAS OVER 60 YEARS AGO

    me: i don’t think you saw the part where i said “today”

    you: name calling

  • thanks for the personal attack i guess lol you are so cool online wow so cool

    still you act like 60 years is some kind of insurmountable gap in history and that’s so cringe. the echoes of slavery and native american genocide echo from before 1776 through today. MLK didn’t magically die and then fix every barrier Black people suffered in life. that’s pretty basic history lol.

    I’m not sure what class disenfranchisement has to do with the part you’re angry about.

    all of it you silly goose. disenfranchisement means “depriving someone of the right to vote.” when the poor are depreived of the right to vote (not directly by law, but indirectly by systemic barriers), it means shocker they don’t vote. this entire thread is in response to someone saying “i guess but they voted for that too.” that’s the context you butted into, i operate on the pretty fair premise that you knew that and read the thread. :)
