[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 days ago (1 child) We don't yet have data on how many eligable voters voted in 2026, but in 2024 only around 57% of Mississippians voted who could. Midterms nearly always have lower turnout, the percentages were in the mid-30s. You do not speak for all black women, stop acting like you do. Again, both parties are incredibly unpopular. The Democrats do not represent workers. The votes were against the Republicans, not for Democrats, in the majority of cases. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [+] Godric@lemmy.world -4 points 2 days ago (1 child) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 days ago* They did not. 99% of black women who voted in Mississippi voted Democrat (and I'm not even sure that's correct, data on voter rates isn't public yet for 2026). Further, I have never said "both sides are the same." I have said that both sides serve the capitalist class. My point is that both the Democrats and Republicans are enormously unpopular, and voting was largely against Republicans, rather than for Democrats. Neither party has the trust of the working class, and voting is treated exactly as a lesser of two evils. A better system is necessary, and this cannot happen through the Democrats. permalink fedilink source parent load more comments (-1 replies)

[–] RiverRock@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 days ago* Democrats and Republicans are the same only to the immensely privileged and immensely stupid. So which of these categories would you say applies to the people of Gaza? permalink fedilink source parent
[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 days ago Do you think capitalism is a system that necessarily creates worse conditions over time, or do you believe that this trend can be reversed? permalink fedilink source parent
