    With how eagerly centrists have been throwing vulnerable minorities under the bus, it’s clear that they bitterly regret the civil rights act and the voting rights act because they cost the party the support of the bigots they love dearly.

          Dems didn’t overturn affirmative action.

          Dems didn’t kill the police brutality bill in 2020.

          Dems aren’t the ones fighting tooth and nail to keep confederate flags and statues up.

          It’s pretty obvious to me whose tryna to throw black people under the bus.

            If you think they won’t abandon you in order to chase nonexistent gettable Republican votes, look at who they already abandoned.

            Republicans are obviously worse and I never said they weren’t. That doesn’t mean that Democrats are reliable allies, because unless your name is Netanyahu, they just aren’t.
