"We warned you," Muslim voters tell Kamala Harris after she goes down in flames
(open.substack.com)
Really not the right take to say "we lost the Election because of Muslims not voting for Kamala".
- It was not just Muslims who did not turn out to vote. It was a large list of different demographics. Some demographics were explicitly shown to having turned out more in order to vote for trump. Of any demographic, Muslims and Arabs were the groups who had probably the best reasons not to vote (islamophobia on both sides and our nation actively propagating a genocide of Arabs regardless of the political party in power)
- While we're focusing on the demographics which did or didn't show, it's still a massive issue that the majority of Americans don't vote, period.
- focusing on this failure as a point of anger and choosing only to blame a group you have no control over has zero value. You either need to either put your eyes forward to prepare for what comes next, or analyze what you could have done better in order to improve your own actions for next time. If there is ever a time for stoicism, it is now, right before the oncoming crisis.
