I don't for the life of me know how they overlooked his obvious racism or assumed it wouldn't be directed towards them because they were already in the US. Frankly, they deserve what's happening to them,
For years I told anyone who'd listen that the Democrats assumption that because someone is black or brown, they are an automatic vote for Democrats, was incorrect and tremendously racist. This racist attitude encouraged the Democrats to completely ignore the needs and the existence of black and brown communities. Doing a camera op at a black church on election year isn't enough.
It was that same racist attitude that failed to look past skin color and to the cultural differences. There is a lot of misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, racism, and conservative values in black, brown, and immigrant communities. I have Indian acquaintances that are so conservative they'd make Stephen Miller blush. The most homophobic and misogynistic people I know are all POC. The MAGAts recognized this, played it up, and exploited the Democratic abandonment.
Dems need to stop being so fucking racists, get off their asses and actually attempt to help people of color and immigrants. Simply "avoiding further harm" isn't enough. The people of Minnesota are out in the cold streets fighting for their immigrant neighbors. That carries weight. Eating a taco on camera does not. Fighting for the rights of LGBTQ+ until you are bloodied (literally or figuratively), carries weight. Wearing a rainbow pin at a photo op does not.
What do you mean, they didn't ignore race, Kamala was not-white! That clearly shows they support minorities!

one thing that unifies them is the mysogyny and sexism, besides race.
I feel as though the word racist is overloaded in your rant. It definitely is correct in your usage of it though.
It is racist to assume that minorities will automatically vote Democrat. Although I thought it's been known for a while now that Latinos lean more right wing (for some reason I thought Asian-Americans would lean more right but it seems it was 60+% democrat). Also, we've had things such as more black people voting against Gay rights bills so yes, we can't put all minority behaviours in the same bucket. But yes, that assumption is racist.
However, the racism that ICE has to lock people up without due process and stuff.
It feels like two different words to me.
Sounds to me like the Republicans are so diverse in their bigotry that any one group shares at least one similar form of hatred and nothing is quite as uniting as shared negativity.

Fuck, .ml, but this is a really bad take. Democrats are just as racist as Republicans, they're just not bloodthirsty. They cynically use race with token candidates and demographic manipulations in order to avoid actually having to do anything in office.
