Green Party candidate Jill Stein is gaining ground among Muslim-American voters in three critical swing states: Michigan, Arizona, and Wisconsin, according to a recent poll by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
Stein leads Vice President and Democrat candidate Kamala Harris in these states, with 40 per cent support in Michigan, 35 per cent in Arizona, and 44 per cent in Wisconsin. This surge in popularity appears tied to Stein’s vocal criticism of US support for Israel during the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
I worry that, if Harris loses because Muslim voters don’t vote for her, liberals will side with Trump when he does another Muslim ban.
Or something worse this time.
Your fear is correct, I’ve seen liberal Nazis salivating about it on reddit. They really hate Muslims.
Nothing to be done about that though. They were going yo turn on Muslims anyway. There can never be safety in collaborating with Nazis
On the contrary if they withold their votes Liberals will have to start appealing to them to win them back.
I’m talking about liberals more broadly, not politicians. The angry mass of liberals might decide to get revenge, even if it isn’t in the Democratic Party’s interests.
Possibly but they’ve already shown to care little about brown people while the Muslims did vote Democrat in 2020. They even refused a Palestinian speaker at the DNC.
In the end when the propaganda machine decides it’s time to go it goes and targets whomever needs to be dehumanized. And most people from both sides will accept the propaganda without question.
Okay now you’re contradicting yourself. It sounds like Democrats don’t have to start appealing to Muslims. They’ll just crank out propaganda and join Republicans in eradicating them. And what are they going to do? Vote Republican?
I’m saying that voting Democrat does not gain them any immunity from being racially profiled by Democrats.
They have already appealed to Democrats and got nothing in return.
But you’re also saying that Democrats will have to appeal to them if they withhold their votes. I don’t think they do. Democrats could just write them off like they already do other groups.
Democrats only have so much leeway before they have to crawl back and appeal to voters. Especially since the elections are so close and minority groups hold significant voting power.
Biden got replaced because Democrats realized he was going to lose to Trump. Not because the establishment didn’t want to run him.
There’s a difference between swapping out Biden for an identical younger candidate and actually appealing to Muslims on this issue.
I think they’d rather help Republicans kill them.
