    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.

          What? There have been significantly more policy and bill proposals from the Democratic party targeting, among others, black men than from the Republican party (at least, in a positive way). This is kind of a wild assertion. Most of the street interviews and the like I’ve seen have basically boiled down to misogyny.
