If you truly believe that Kamala Harris is a corporatist centrist Clintonite Democrat shill, fine.

But understand that running up to black women and shouting "that black woman y'all like is a corporatist shill" ain't gon cut it.

What I REALLY think you should be doing is figuring out how to ally with her towards the goal of collaboration across party wings...

BUT even if you just want to compete, I need my socialist friends out here saying "how are we going to compete with THAT."

What are we going to offer black women, as a specific voter bloc, that will be as persuasive as this from Kamala Harris.

Call me a corporatist shill, but I believe competition improves the product. So compete for us. Fight for us. Prove you care about us.

Us here not just being black women but black people, queer people, feminists, disabled people, Latinx folks, Asian folks... fight for us.

Prove that you want our vote. That's what I need from the socialist left.

Because I truly believe that when we bring the socialist left and the identity left together (and not before) we can save America.

but if the so-called corporate Dems are the only ones who prove they want our votes... that's where our allegiance will stay. Sorry.

(I mean I'll probably still vote for the socialist in the primary. But you know, 'we' en masse.)
