Just realized that I never posted my thread about why Buttigieg cannot win the 2028 election here.

@mekkaokereke
I've been looking for corroboration of what you say. But I'm struggling to find any. Probably just searching on the wrong words in the wrong search engine.
I recognize you don't owe us anything but I'd really like to read evidence of this if you have any links.No worries!
Let's do this together.
Please share the exact search term you tried based on the above post.

I just searched on Qwant as well. The search term I used was:
"Buttigieg boykins tapes"This is the first link:
Judge rules for officers in South Bend Police Tapes Case
After a 14-year legal fight between the South Bend Common Council, city administration and a group of officers, St. Joseph Superior Judge Jamie Woods on Thursday ruled the city must destroy the recordings of officers, some of the allegedly saying racially offensive things, because they were made without the officers' consent, in violation of the Indiana and federal wiretap acts.

@mekkaokereke Ah! I think "boykins" might have added to the sauce.
Thank you! Reading now!

Because people infantilize Black folk, in particular Black men, they usually assume that they have more info than Black men voters, and make better decisions than us when presented with the same info.
️No one bothered to do what you did (ask Black men why they didn't like Buttigieg as a candidate).

@mekkaokereke damn, got my hopes up that there might be a journalist who'd actually bother

Just realized that I never posted my thread about why Buttigieg cannot win the 2028 election here. Oops.
Way back when, mayor Pete's reform-minded chief of police, Daryl Boykins, recorded some of his officers making vile racist statements. So Buttigieg fired... the police chief.
Boykins was the 1st Black police chief in city history, and was building trust with Black folk.
But it gets worse...

@cykonot @blogdiva @mekkaokereke the Buttigiegs, Altmans, Thiels et al may be queer people, but they will always be white men first and foremost. disgusting pieces of shit, the lot of them.

@minmi @mekkaokereke Try harder to imagine it. It’s actually not a problem.
The anti-semites are almost all white evangelicals who are already in the bag for the GOP. They are easily outnumbered by a fully energized base that wants to vote for pluralistic multiracial secular democracy.
There are two groups that are reliable voters for that and the math needs both of them to be energized in the swing states. One of them is black people. The other is white non-religious people. Biden won because he had both behind him. In the swing states.
Keep running these candidates that black people and white non-religious people don’t support, and you keep losing.
